The threat of terrorism and the corresponding climate of fear encouraged by the government have together eroded our freedom to live our lives in peace and quiet away from the prying eyes of hidden cameras.

But exactly who are “they” and why do they want to know so much about us?

Book Description
When her teenage daughter disappears, a grieving mother must put together the clues of her child’s sordid secret life to find the culprit. It’s every mother’s nightmare, but one she will not accept. . . . In an unthinkable flash, Emmy Fisher’s fifteen-year-old daughter, Leah, seemingly drowns close to shore one summer night—at least that is what the police report says. In deep grief, Emmy needs time and courage before she can enter Leah’s bedroom. But when she does, she finds something at first bewildering, then unspeakable, as she begins to understand the full implications. She uncovers evidence that Leah had been secretly involved with someone, someone perhaps older, someone with dark appetites. Bit by bit, the last few months of Leah’s life unfold in a terrifying way that Emmy can hardly imagine. All she knows is that she has to find the person who took her sweet daughter’s innocence. No matter the cost. The truth will set her free. Or bury her. Praise for Courtney Evan Tate’s novel Such Dark Things “Recommended for all thriller/suspense collections.” —Booklist “Written in breathless style, this page-turner relies on quick thrills, surprise twists . . . a fast entertaining tale.” —Publishers Weekly “Readers will be rapt as they race to discover the culprit, but along the way they will find an authentic, absorbing story of love, friendship, and grief . . .
