When the paintings catch the attention of the wealthy owner of Camp Night-ingale, Francesca implores Emma to return to the newly reopened camp as an art instructor. Wouldn't she like to put the past to rest?

A USA TODAY Best Book of 2021

Two former best friends return to their college reunion to find that they're being circled by someone who wants revenge for what they did ten years before--and will stop at nothing to get it--in this "propulsive" (Megan Miranda, bestselling author of The Girl from Widow Hills) psychological thriller.

A lot has changed in years since Ambrosia Wellington graduated from college, and she's worked hard to create a new life for herself. But then an invitation to her ten-year reunion arrives in the mail, along with an anonymous note that reads, "We need to talk about what we did that night."

It seems that the secrets of Ambrosia's past--and the people she thought she'd left there--aren't as buried as she believed. Amb can't stop fixating on what she did or who she did it with: larger-than-life Sloane "Sully" Sullivan, Amb's former best friend, who could make anyone do anything.

At the reunion, Amb and Sully receive increasingly menacing messages, and it becomes clear that they're being pursued by someone who wants more than just the truth of what happened that first semester. This person wants revenge for what they did and the damage they caused--the extent of which Amb is only now fully understanding. And it was all because of the game they played to get a boy who belonged to someone else and the girl who paid the price.

Alternating between the reunion and Amb's freshman year, The Girls Are All So Nice Here is a "chilling and twisty thriller" (Book Riot) about the brutal lengths girls can go to get what they think they're owed, and what happens when the games we play in college become matters of life and death.

Karin Slaughter

Responding to a killing during a riot inside a state penitentiary GBI
investigator Will Trent is confronted with disturbing information.
One of the inmates claims that he is innocent of a brutal attack for which he has always been the prime suspect, and that he was framed by a corrupt law enforcement team led by Jeffrey Tolliver. If this is true, a serial killer who has been systematically preying on women across Georgia for years is still out there. Only days ago, another young woman was viciously murdered in a state park. Could it be the same killer?
If Will reopens the investigation and implicates the dead police officer with a hero's reputation of wrongdoing, the opportunistic convict will provide crucial information about the riot murder. Yet nearly a decade has passed-time for memories to fade, witnesses to vanish, evidence to disappear. His best chance at discovering the truth might lie with the person he doesn't want involved: his girlfriend and Jeffrey Tolliver's widow, medical examiner Sara Linton.
When the past and present begin to collide, Will realizes that
everything he values is at stake...

Investigating the killing of a prisoner during a riot inside a state penitentiary, GBI investigator Will Trent is confronted with disturbing information. One of the inmates claims that he is innocent of a brutal attack for which he has always been the prime suspect.

If Will reopens the investigation and implicates the dead police officer with a hero's reputation of wrongdoing, the opportunistic convict is willing to provide the information GBI needs about the riot murder.

As Will Trent digs into both crimes it becomes clear that he must solve the cold case in order to find the answer. Yet nearly a decade has passed--time for memories to fade, witnesses to vanish, evidence to disappear, and lies to become truth. But Will can't crack either mystery without the help of the one person he doesn't want involved: his girlfriend and Jeffrey Tolliver's widow, medical examiner Sara Linton.

Four days later, Louise Rick still had no answers.
An unidentified woman's body was discovered in a local forest.
A large, unique scar on one side of her face should have made the identification easy, but nobody has reported her missing. As the new commander of the Missing Persons Department, Louise risks involving the media by releasing a photo of the victim, hoping to find someone who knew her.
Louise's gamble pays off: an older woman phones to say that she recognizes the woman as Lisemette, a child she once cared for in the state mental institution many years ago. Lisemette, like the other children in the institution, was abandoned by her family and branded a
"forgotten girl." But Louise soon discovers something more disturbing:
Lisemette had a twin, and both girls were issued death certificates more than thirty years ago.
Aided by her friend journalist Camilla Lind, Louise finds that the investigation takes a surprising and unsettling turn when it brings her closer to her childhood home. And as she uncovers more crimes that were committed and hidden— in the forest, she is forced to confront a terrible link to her own past that has been carefully concealed.

The Forgotten Girls

The body of an unidentified woman has been discovered in a remote forest. A large, unique scar on one side of her face should make the identification easy, but nobody has reported her missing. Louise Rick, the new commander of the Missing Persons Department, waits four long days before pulling off a risky move: releasing a photo of the victim to the media, jeopardizing the integrity of the investigation in hopes of finding anyone who knew her.

The gamble pays off when a woman recognizes the victim as Lisemette, a child she cared for in the state mental institution many years ago. Lisemette was a "forgotten girl", abandoned by her family and left behind in the institution. But Louise soon discovers something even more disturbing: Lisemette had a twin, and both girls were issued death certificates more than thirty years ago.

Louise's investigation takes a surprising when it brings her closer to her childhood home. And as she uncovers more crimes that were committed--and hidden--in the forest, she is forced to confront a terrible link to her own past that has been carefully concealed. Set against a moody and atmospheric landscape, The Forgotten Girls is twisty, suspenseful, emotionally intense novel that secures Sara Blaedel's place in the pantheon of great thriller writers.
