suspenseful thriller with this tale of heartbreak, the cruelties of

“Expertly
portrayed by narrator Jorjeana Marie, Toni Murphy tells her life’s story
through a series of flashbacks that go back to the year 1996…Marie adds reality
and substance to the circle of girls who bully Toni in school, deftly building
the tension in this YA psychological suspense. Her voice gives personality to
Toni’s character, and her pacing, tone, and dialogue are spot-on. Even the male
character voices are well done. Overall, Marie heightens the emotional scenes.”

“We meet Toni Murphy just as she’s
about to be paroled from a Canadian penitentiary…Stevens does an
excellent job conveying Toni’s near-constant state of unease—as a victim
of teenage bullying, a prison inmate protesting her innocence, a
parolee who’s prohibited from coming in contact with the people who
could clear her name. And she supplies a corker of an ending.”

“Stevens draws a dark crime drama from the beautiful blue-green of Canada’s Vancouver Island…Think James Lee Burke and Sue Grafton: Stevens’ dark psychological thriller shares their damaged people and distinctive senses of place.”
