About the Book

Family secrets turn deadly in this edgy page-turner about the insidious limits of labels and the ties that bind just a little too tightly, from the New York Times bestselling author of the Chronicles of Vladimir Tod. Growing up, Adrien and his sister, Grace, competed viciously for everything. It wasn't easy being the adopted sibling, but Adrien tried to get along; it was Grace who didn't want anything to do with him. When their scientist parents died in a terrible lab fire, there was nothing left to hold them together. Now, after years apart, Adrien and Grace are forced to reunite at the elite boarding school where their parents were teachers. Being back around everyone he used to know makes Adrien question the person he's become, while being back around Grace makes him feel like someone he doesn't want to be. For as much as Adrien wants to move on, someone seems determined to reopen old wounds. And when Adrien starts to suspect that Grace knows more about their parents' deaths than she let on, he realizes there are some wounds no amount of time can heal. If Adrien isn't careful, they may even kill him.

About the Author :
Zac Brewer grew up on a diet of The Twilight Zone and books by Stephen King. He chased them down with every drop of horror he could find--in books, in movie theaters, and on television. The most delicious parts of his banquet, however, he found lurking in the shadowed corners of his dark imagination. When he's not writing books, he's skittering down your wall and lurking underneath your bed. Zac doesn't believe in happy endings . . . unless they involve blood. He lives in Missouri with his husband and two children. Visit Zac at www.zacbrewer.com. Nick Podehl is a professional voice actor. He has narrated numerous audiobooks, many of which have won prestigious awards, including fourteen AudioFile Earphones Awards. He currently lives and works around Grand Rapids, Michigan, with his wife.

Review :
An intimately personal story, as readers are introduced to Adrien, the hero, who doesn't feel the need to define himself by societal labels. Perfectly balanced, Brewer conveys the right amount of sentiment without verging into too much teenage angst or emotional regurgitation...An edge-of-your-seat, entertaining whodunit. -- "RT Book Reviews (4 stars)" Brewer does a fine job handling...uncertainties and at the same time ratcheting up suspense as the mystery of the parents' deaths deepens...Riveting. -- "Booklist" Brewer threads his story with dramatic high points-explosive science projects, a poignant memory key to the sibling's animosity-as well as thoughtful explorations of sexuality. -- "Publishers Weekly" Narrator Nick Podehl's portrayal of two antagonistic siblings captures their furious dialogues...Podehl captures Grace's volatile comebacks and sudden fits with an intensity that matches his dramatization of Adrien...Podehl softens those harsh emotions with hints of Adrien's pain as well as the longing for love that lurks beneath his behavior. Providing counterpoint, Podehl gives a gentle voice to a kindly guardian who wishes for the siblings' resolution. At the story's climax, Podehl escalates Adrien's emotions from confusion, to questioning, and, finally, horror. -- "AudioFile" Readers will be absorbed by large doses of teen angst, the boarding school scene, and Adrien's acknowledgement of his sexual preferences....[with] his development as an empathetic coming-of-age character. -- "School Library Journal" Using cinematic, almost Gothic phrasing, humor, suspense, compassion, and sensitivity to the nebulous natures of sexuality and identity...Brewer weaves sexuality and identity into the story but does not make them the engine for it; the result is a rich, authentic read. -- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"
