Description
Small towns have big secrets. In New Hannah Cove, the lives of five teenage girls will be forever altered by one reckless decision. River should be Popularity's poster child: he's on the football team, and he lives in a mansion. The students of Covenant High, though, keep score of his anger issues, and treat him like an outsider. Except Brielle, who falls in love quickly with him. But when young love fades, a betrayal leads to tragedy and New Hannah Cove becomes a monster's playground.
An obsessed father bent on revenge targets the girls who bullied his son. He stalks them, learns their greatest fears, constructs a soundproofed shack, and kidnaps them one by one. He calls the shack "The Radical Redress," a place where wrongs can be made right. He customizes their torture to their specific fears. There's Brielle, who fears being lost. Sierra, the star pole vaulter and the only Black person in her family, fears dying at the hands of a racist police officer. Willow, the school journalist, questions whether River was truly bullied, and believes beauty brings acceptance. Eden, who is top in the class, dreams of becoming a scientist, but fears the dark. Her dad is a felon, and her family is made up of Pretenders. There's also Sage. Unconnected to the tragedy at Covenant High, she already knows abuse: her fear is water.
When the girls realize they're not alone, they hatch a daring escape plan. Some are disfigured, some are homeless, and some are angry. In a town where no one suspects your kidnapper, they have to fight for their own survival. Not all of them come home. From the author of "Dance for Me," "River's Rowan" examines themes of abuse, racism and what determines who is a bully and who is a victim.
