About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is feeling gaslit by peers or struggling with the fear that their intuition is being dismissed by those around them. This 90s thriller follows Cassidy, a girl whose seemingly perfect life begins to crumble as she experiences a series of dangerous accidents that others attribute to her own mental instability. It explores heavy themes of trust, social isolation, and the anxiety of not being believed. While the book functions as a fast-paced mystery, it serves as a gateway to discuss the importance of trusting one's gut and the psychological impact of social exclusion. It is best suited for older middle schoolers and high school students who enjoy suspense and are navigating the complex social hierarchies of teenage life. Parents will find it a useful tool for validating a child's internal alarm system when something feels wrong in their environment.
