In the Dark

My name is Lilly McGuire.
I accepted a long time ago that my older brother is no longer part of my life. It's been over two years, and I still have no clue why he stopped talking to me.

Everything was great. Then he left for football camp the summer before I was going to join him at Westbridge High. When he came back, he pretended I didn't exist, leaving the room every time I'd enter. Eventually, he stopped coming home altogether and basically moved in with his best friend. Our parents never said a word.

Now, just when I'm content again with my life, I choose the wrong topic for my journalism assignment. Or is it maybe the right one?

I get sucked into a ten-year-old case of missing girls, and with every passing day, I get pulled in deeper and deeper into a world that makes me question everything I believed to be the truth. When I finally decide that I'm simply losing my mind, something unexpected happens, and I have to make a choice that will determine not only my entire future but also my safety.

My name is Rhys McGuire.
My life is based on secrets, and two years ago, I had to make a choice. I stayed away, but I've kept watching.

Now, fate has thrown me a bone, and the decision is mine again. Stay quiet or come clean? Continue the charade or tell her everything that's been tearing me apart since I was seven years old?

The choice is mine, but do I really have one? If she finds out, I could lose her forever. The ones she has trusted most will be the ones that have betrayed her-maybe even beyond repair. I want to believe that she would forgive me, but could she move past all of the lies?

In the Dark is the first book in a series of secrets, love, friendship, betrayal, AND more secrets.
