Description
"Dark and gritty ... an exceptional, heart-pounding story full of raw emotion, deep-seated fear, and an undercurrent of hope and innocence." - Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize Semifinalist "Best Psychological Thriller of 2021." - BestThrillers.com "Masterful interplay of character, setting, and theme ... a real page-turner." - IndieReader Discovery Award for Fiction "You root for the lead, Emily, and stick with her throughout. Engaged me from the first page." - Feathered Quill Medal Winner for Mystery/Suspense Twelve-year-old Emily Calby was a good girl from a religious family in rural Georgia. She loved softball, her little sister, and looking up words to get her allowance. Then two men came and murdered her family. Only the killers know she survived. On the run, surviving by wits and animal instinct, she makes an unlikely ally in an ex-gang member who lost his own family to violence. He takes her in and trains her in "self-defense" before more tragedy launches her on a terrifying journey for justice. Nothing will stop her-not cops or creeps, not even her own splintering mind. Through it all, Emily fights to hold onto the girl she once knew, kept buried deep inside. Dark and gritty, but filled with heart and hope, The Hiding Girl is a twisty, fast-paced coming-of-age story and a testament to the boundless limits of human love, sacrifice, and the will to survive. Awards/honors for titles in the Emily Calby Series include: Publishers Weekly BookLife Prize Semifinalist; IndieReader Discovery Award for Fiction; Best Psychological Thriller of 2021 and Finalist, Best Legal Thriller of 2021 (BestThrillers.com); National Indie Excellence Award Finalist; and Readers' Favorite Awards in both Suspense and New Adult fiction.
