A lavish, Texas-sized Sweet Sixteen turns deadly in this twisty, pulse-pounding new novel â serving up a fresh take on a classic locked-room whodunnit. Let the festivities beginâŚ
Today is Sophie Matthewsâs sixteenth birthday party, an exclusive black-tie bash in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, where secrets are as deep-rooted as the sprawling live oaks. Sophieâs dad has spared no expense, and his renovated cliffside mansionâonce thought haunted and shuttered for years from outsidersâis now hosting the event of the season. Then, just before the candles on the three-tiered red velvet cake are blown out, a body falls from the balcony onto the starlit dance floor below.
Itâs a killer guest list . . .
DANI: Sophieâs new stepmother whoâs been plagued by self-doubt ever since the birth of her own baby girl
ĂĆĂââRLAITH: the superstitious Irish nanny who senses a looming danger in this cavernous house
MIKAYLA: the birthday girlâs best friend who is not nearly as meek as the popular kids assume
KIM: the cunning ex-wife who has a grudge she canât let go of . . .
Everyone is invited in. Not everyone will get out alive.
