When Grey goes home to La Cachette Louisiana the summer after her best friend vanishes, she is determined to reconnect with her friends and find out what happened to Elora. But she ends up finding that the town is hiding more than just their psychic abilities.
I really enjoyed the writing in this book! It was super dark and atmospheric and I got really into it. I thought it was very mysterious and I was definitely trying to figure out who I could trust, who was at fault, and what bloody secrets the town held.
I didn't love the characters that much. I wasn't a big fan of Grey's obsession with her friend/crush Hart, and I didn't like the way he was acting. Obviously these things were written this way for a reason, and it did make sense later, but I didn't love it. I also felt like Grey just jumped from one boy to another with no really self-reflection there.
Overall, I enjoyed this!
