Synopsis

"A Juicy Creep-A-Thon. . .Builds To A Suprising Cliffhanger Ending." -Publishers Weekly (starred review)

At first, it sounds like the answer to a parent's prayers: an elite boarding school in the Oregon mountains where wayward kids turn their lives around. But behind the idyllic veneer lie disturbing rumors of missing students and questionable treatments.

"A Nail-Biting Roller-Coaster Ride." -Library Journal

Jules Farentino knows her half-sister, Shaylee, has been going off the rails lately. She's just not sure Blue Rock Academy is the answer. Accepting a teaching position there lets Jules keep an eye on Shay, but also confirms her fears. One student is found hanged, another near death. Something sinister is at hand--and Jules may already be too late to stop it.

"The Book's Ending Will Throw Most Readers For A Loop." --The Free Lance-Star

As a brutal snowstorm sweeps in, cutting off the remote campus from the rest of the world, Jules will discover the Academy's dark secrets, and confront a murderous evil without limits, without remorse, without mercy. . .
