The Darkness Rises
by Stacy Stokes
What if you had the ability to see death before it happens... but you saved someone who wasn't supposed to be save and now the consequences are coming back to get you? Whitney has the ability to see when people are close to dying, she's saved a lot of people... but the last person she saved ended up becoming a school shooter... and now she's haunted and wracked with guilt over it. It's been a year since the tragedy and she's been trying to escape the memory.... yet someone knows she saved the killer.... and they want her to confess or else they will hurt people she cares about. Whitney has to find out who did it before everyone she loves is killed. From the surviving family members of those who were killed to the mysterious new boy at her school who she finds herself getting closer to or even her ex boyfriend who played a part in causing the shooter to snap, it could be anyone and time is running out. The person who is after her has given her only a few days to confess before they take matters into her own hands. This was a fun mystery. I liked the bit of "powers" element in the story and the twists were fun. I think this is an interesting mystery read that people will have a fun time reading, it really keeps you going throughout the book and Whitney is a sympathetic protagonist, she tries so hard to do good but no good deed goes unpunished. It's a fun read overall and I think anyone who enjoys a mystery with some thrills will have fun with it.
