书籍简介

“地球上火爆的恐怖小说作家之一”（Paste）和 #HorrorBookTok 轰动一时的《The Troop》的作者带着一部令人心跳加速的恐怖小说回归，讲述了一位年轻女子寻找失踪的朋友并发现令人震惊的真相的故事。

六月的一个阳光明媚的早晨，玛格丽特·卡彭特醒来发现门口有一部新 iPhone。她打开它，发现了她的好朋友 Charity Atwater 发来的短信。问题是，Charity 已经失踪一个多月了。镇上的大多数人——甚至警察——都认为她死了。

玛格丽特和 Charity 是终生的朋友。他们分享一切，知道彼此私密的细节……除了隐藏在他们两人身上的毁灭性秘密。这个秘密将引发一系列事件，最终导致悲剧、流血和死亡。现在 Charity 想让玛格丽特知道她的故事——真实的故事。故事发生在一个发烧的日子里，玛格丽特追随一系列越来越令人不安的线索，逐渐深入她的好朋友的秘密——一个她从未真正了解过的人……

“One of the hottest horror authors on the planet” (Paste) and writer of the #HorrorBookTok sensation The Troop returns with a heart-pounding novel of horror about a young woman searching for her missing friend and uncovering a shocking truth.

On a sunny morning in June, Margaret Carpenter wakes up to find a new iPhone on her doorstep. She switches it on to find a text from her best friend, Charity Atwater. The problem is, Charity’s been missing for over a month. Most people in town—even the police—think she’s dead.

Margaret and Charity have been lifelong friends. They share everything, know the most intimate details about one another…except for the destructive secret hidden from them both. A secret that will trigger a chain of events ending in tragedy, bloodshed, and death. And now Charity wants Margaret to know her story—the real story. In a narrative that takes place over one feverish day, Margaret follows a series of increasingly disquieting breadcrumbs as she forges deeper into the mystery of her best friend—a person she never truly knew at all…
