 It's been a bit since I've read anything from Kelley Armstrong, but when I read the summary, I was instantly intrigued.

A young adult psychological thriller with a sci-fi twist? Yes, please!

When Blythe and her friends witness an unexpected outburst at their school, they'll soon discover their memories of the event, and what's to follow doesn't make sense. As they learn the truth, they're left with the question of how far they are willing to go to save their classmates?

My only true complaint would be not knowing this would be a new series, but in truth, I should have realized the possibility as that aligns with Kelley's writing style.
