Description
The death of her best friend and arrival of a secretive new kid in town challenge everything a girl thought she knew in this “spectacular” (L.J. Smith, bestselling author of The Vampire Diaries) first book in the young adult paranormal The Hollow trilogy.
When Abbey's best friend, Kristen, vanishes at the bridge near Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, everyone else is all too quick to believe her dead—and speculate that it was no accident. Abbey goes through the motions of mourning her best friend, but privately, she refuses to believe that Kristen is really gone. Then she meets Caspian, the gorgeous and mysterious boy who shows up out of nowhere at Kristen's funeral.
Caspian clearly has secrets, but he’s also the only person who makes Abbey feel normal…and special at the same time. Just when Abbey starts to feel that she might survive all this, she learns a secret that makes her question everything she thought she knew about her best friend. How could Kristen have kept silent about so much? And could this secret have led to her death?
As Abbey struggles to understand Kristen’s betrayal, she uncovers a frightening truth that nearly unravels her—one that will challenge her emerging love for Caspian, as well as her own sanity.

Person
Jessica Verday is the New York Times bestselling author of The Hollow trilogy, The Beautiful and the Damned, and the Of Monsters and Madness series. Her short stories were featured in The First Time anthology, which she coedited, and Enthralled: Paranormal Diversions. She believes a shoe isn’t a shoe unless it has a three-inch heel, and nothing beats a great pair of boots. When not daydreaming about moving into a library of her own, she can be found working on her next story, redecorating her office, or buying vintage furniture.
