Publisher Description

Ever since her father was stabbed to death in a home invasion, Julia “Jules” Farentino has been plagued by nightmares. Her half-sister, Shaylee, now seventeen, has had her own difficulties since the tragedy, earning a rap sheet for drug use, theft, and vandalism. Still, when Jules learns of her mother’s decision to send Shay to an elite boarding school in Oregon, she’s skeptical. Blue Rock Academy has a reputation for turning wayward kids around — but one of its students went missing a few months earlier and her body has never been found.

On impulse, Jules applies for a teaching job at the Academy. Shortly before Jules arrives, a student is found hanged, another near death, and a hysterical Shay believes it’s murder. Then another girl is found dead. There’s no doubt something sinister is at hand. And Jules has become the next target of a bloodthirsty killer without limits, without remorse, without mercy…

    " What an amazing story for young adults. A suspense novel with a captivating story. A remote reform school out in the middle of nowhere with a killer on the loose and several suspects all of whom are vindicated in the end. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. "

    " Completely impossible, but it was a fun ride and had a twist at the end that even the most jaded readers won't see coming. Nice one, Lisa! It reminded me why I won't ever let a Lisa Jackson go unread. Sometimes she's just ON. "

    " I thought that this book was a little uneven in it's execution. I found certain details very hard to believe. For instance, the main character gets a job at the school where her half-sister has been sent. The school never discovered that the two were related. I did keep reading because I wanted to find out what would happen next. I just had to suspend a lot of disbelief while I was reading. "

    " I just could not get into this book. Normally I like Lisa Jackson, all other books I have read of hers I have given a 3 or 4 star rating, but this one no way. Even up to the last chapters I just couldn't care about the characters. I didn't care how the romantic thread was wrapped up, or even who survived. The story line was confusing. Oh well, nobody is perfect. I will give Lisa Jackson another chance based on my past experience, but I would recommend passing this one by. "

    " I don't think much of this book. The story line was very lame. I also have a problem with stupid women characters. Everyone of the women in this book was stupid. Not sure if I will read Lisa Jackson again. "

    " Generally, I did not like this book. It was very slow the the storyline was a little too "out there" for me to believe much of it as a plausible story. I really did not like this story until the end. And somehow, that was a redeeming quality in an otherwise blah book. "

    " I truly feel as if many modern authors have a template most of them follow. The only changes are the names which get cornier as time goes on. The plot is dreadfully predictable as is the dialogue. They sort of change the plot but they all follow the same rythym. BORING!!! DRIBBLE!! "
