For the adults who used to know her, the discovery of what might be Jessie's bones has disrupted their lives with turmoil. For Becca, she has to face her feelings for Jessie's former boyfriend and the true nature of her connection to Jessie's inner circle of friends. Quickly, the turmoil created by the discovery appears to have deeper implications than whether a troubled young woman ran away or was murdered, as accidents plague the group.
A page-turner of a thriller, WICKED GAME is like candy for the reader who loved Christopher Pike as a teenager or who, as an adult, enjoys Mary Higgins Clark.
Book Summary
ONE BY ONE, THEY’LL DIE…
Twenty years ago, wild
child
Jessie Brentwood vanished from St. Elizabeth’s high school.
Most in Jessie’s tight circle of friends believed she simply
ran away. Few suspected that Jessie was hiding a shocking
secret—one that brought her into the crosshairs of a vicious
killer…
UNTIL THERE’S NO ONE
LEFT…
Two decades pass before a body is
unearthed on school grounds and Jessie’s old friends reunite
to talk. Most are sure that the body is Jessie’s, that the
mystery of what happened to her has finally been solved.
But soon, Jessie’s friends each begin to die in horrible,
freak accidents that defy explanation…
BUT HER…
Becca Sutcliff has
been haunted for years by unsettling visions of Jessie,
certain her friend met with a grisly end. Now the latest
deaths have her rattled. Becca can sense that an evil force
is shadowing her too, waiting for just the right moment to
strike. She feels like she’s going crazy. Is it all a
coincidence—or has Jessie’s killer finally returned to
finish what was started all those years ago?
