    "description": "<p><strong>A intensely romantic and atmospheric thriller for young adults, full of twists and turns with a simmering supernatural undercurrent. Perfect for fans of Holly Jackson, Karen McManus and Delia Owens&rsquo; <strong>Where the Crawdads Sing</strong></strong><br /><br />When seventeen-year-old Grey makes her annual visit to La Cachette, Louisiana &ndash; the tiny bayou town that proclaims to be the &ldquo;Psychic Capital of the World&rdquo; &ndash; she knows it will be different from past years: her childhood best friend Elora went missing several months earlier and no one is telling the truth about the night she disappears.<br /><br />Grey can&rsquo;t believe that Elora vanished into thin air any more than she can believe that nobody in a town full of psychics knows what happened. But as she digs into the night that Elora went missing, she begins to realize that everybody in town is hiding something&mdash;her grandmother Honey; her childhood crush Hart; and even her late mother, whose secrets continue to call to Grey from beyond the grave.<br /><br />When a mysterious stranger emerges from the bayou &ndash; a stormy-eyed boy with links to Elora and the town&rsquo;s bloody history &ndash; Grey realizes that La Cachette&rsquo;s past is far more present and dangerous than she&rsquo;d ever understood. She doesn&rsquo;t know who she can trust. In a town where secrets lurk just below the surface, and where a murderer is on the loose, nobody can be presumed innocent&mdash;and La Cachette&rsquo;s dark and shallow lies may just rip the town apart.</p>",
