Publisher Description
Sometimes sorry isn’t enough….
It’s winter break in Ascension, Maine. The snow is falling and everything looks pristine and peaceful. But not all is as it seems….
Between cozy traditions and parties with her friends, Emily loves the holidays. And this year’s even better - the guy she’s been into for months is finally noticing her. But Em knows if she starts things with him, there’s no turning back. Because his girlfriend is Em’s best friend.
On the other side of town, Chase is having problems of his own. The stress of his home life is starting to take its toll, and his social life is unraveling. But that’s nothing compared to what’s really haunting him. Chase has done something cruel… something the perfect guy he pretends to be would never do. And it’s only a matter of time before he’s exposed.
In Ascension, mistakes can be deadly. And three girls - three beautiful, mysterious girls - are here to choose who will pay.
Em and Chase have been chosen.

"Whoa, definately not a happy ending. Two main characters have something horrible to hide and the Furies are going to make sure they get what they deserve.Very interesting for those readers who like realistic fiction with a dose of the supernatural/mythical. "

— Portland Press Herald -
“The furies are reinvented in eerie modern form, wreaking havoc in the lives of a group of teens in a fictional Maine town in this spine-prickling debut, first in a planned trilogy…Deliciously chilling.”
— Kirkus Reviews -
“This novel sets a steady pace of increasing suspense…The modernization of the Furies names is clever, and all of the teens and their personal dramas ring true. This intriguing novel might prompt discussions about mythology, bullying, and retribution.”

" Just wasn't my thing, didn't gel well with me. "

" I wish i had 6 stars to give this book, it was phenomenal! I cannot wait for Elizabeth miles to write another novel. I found myself hating, sympathizing, worrying for, cheering on, relating to, and ultimately loving the cast of characters in the story. "
— Hannah, 12/26/2013 -

" Took a while to get going... Most of the exciting stuff happens toward the end of the book.. But once you get there you don't want to stop. It's captivating. Not what I was expecting. "

— Madi, 4/2/2012 -
" I read this book in couple of hours. Haven't really ever read something like this before. the heroine irritated me in the middle, but in the end grew on me. This was kinda a sad book. The Furys are bitches, that's all I'm gonna say. 3.5 stars if I have to be precise. "
— Davor, 11/4/2011 -
" I think this book would work much better as a made-for-tv horror movie. What took a few hundred pages could have easily been summed-up in a two-hour (with commericials) narrative where I would be more likely to believe the sudden revelations that the characters miraculously have [spoilers removed]. "
— Becca, 10/19/2011 -
" Meh. I don't understand why the reviews were so glowing. "
