Author: Amy Crandall

Genre: YA Psychological Thriller

Publisher: Limitless Publishing

As she waits to give her statement in one of the interrogation rooms of Arcata Police Department, Abigale recites the same line over and over inside her head.

I did not kill anyone.

But there’s a trail of bodies, and it leads straight to her. The events that brought her to this very moment all point to one thing . . . her guilt.

She must convince Detective Collins of her innocence, but how can she explain her ties to the victims, and the evidence that has her name written all over it?

Then there’s the mysterious Facebook profile, DarkHeart434. Who is DarkHeart434? And why does it seem like this person has all the answers, including the identity of the real murderer?

As pieces of the puzzle start to come together, everything about Abigale’s life begins to unravel–her past, her present . . . and even her self-proclaimed innocence.

My Review:

I wanted to read this book because it sounded different than my usual reads. This was my first time reading this author and overall it was a good read. The plot held my attention but certain parts felt a little flat for me. The whole romance angle really didn’t do it for me at all. I know it’s YA but it was missing something. The suspense parts of the story were well written. I had a few theories as I read and I was right about one thing. Other things I didn’t see coming and talk about plot twist! This author has a lot of potential and I’m looking forward to reading more books in the future.

The agent reached for the file he’d thrown onto the table earlier. Flipping it open, he jabbed a finger at an enlarged photo of a person lying on the pavement. “How do you explain this, then?”

Abigale closed her eyes, the photo still burning into the remnants of her mind. The night he was attacked was the last time she’d seen him. She still wasn’t sure how he—

“Abigale!” Agent Ross slammed his hand down in front of her, startling Abigale into opening her eyes again. “I would like you to explain to me how a wild night of partying ended in this!” He pointed at the photo again, and Abigale slapped a hand over her mouth when she felt bile rising in her throat.

“I told you,” she said, “I don’t know!”

An evidence bag landed on the table. Abigale’s pulse skyrocketed. Blood stained the familiar canvas.

“How do you explain this, then?” he asked, his voice menacingly calm.

Abigale felt the fingers around her throat again, squeezing the life out of her. The bag…she’d gotten rid of it. It should have been in the landfill by now. How did they have it? “I—what is this?”

“Why don’t you tell me, Abigale? It was picked up from your house. It’s too bad you didn’t conceal it better when the garbage truck came by to pick it up. He reported it to us immediately. A day after the party.”

Shit.

“I’ve never seen this before in my life. It’s not even my bag!”

Liar.

A vein protruded from his forehead, and Abigale could sense his growing anger. “I know what happened at the party.”
