Disappearances are becoming a reoccurring nightmare in the town of Cryer’s Cross. At first it was one person, one kid, who disappeared and was never heard from again. After hours and days of searching, the girl could not be found. Blamed for her kidnapping, new kid Jacian Obregon starts of the new school year with a bitter attitude, while the rest start off with a feeling of loss. As the days pass another disappearance occurs and Kendall is stuck to wonder what had happened and what is to come. Trying to find the missing kids, she turns to the most unlikely of people. Filled with action, romance, and some horror, this book is sure to leave readers in awe.

Lisa McMann, the author of the Wake, Fade, Gone trilogy, has definitely created another hit with Cryer’s Cross. Although I wish McMann had put in more detail about Kendall’s OCD to make it more emotionally… riveting, I guess, it was an interesting concept. This book was definitely different, and that big horrors can be found in little towns.
