Complicit

Descripción

Review "Kuehn writes with the fleetness of a trained thriller author...Her confidence is what's so invigorating: every page makes a firm, surprising choice, whether you like it or not...Explosive." --Booklist (starred review)"Kuehn's second novel, after her Morris Award-winning Charm & Strange, powerfully examines how mental illness can turn into family tragedy that ripples far and wide beyond a single event. The prose is as hallucinatory as the madness Jamie seeks to uncover in a novel that's tense and ambiguous from start to finish." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)"Alternating between past and present, Kuehn sustains the tension through first-person narration and revealing flashbacks. Complicit ensnares readers from the first page with its surprising twists and revelations. Recommend it to fans of psychological thrillers." --School Library Journal (starred review)"Vivid...smart, gripping." --Kirkus Reviews"An enjoyable and cinematic suspense thriller...literarily delicious." --Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books review"Kuehn's latest is a quick, compelling read that takes a really fresh look at topics like mental illness and adoption. Complicit is a refreshing, different take on the YA norm." --RT Book Review (3 stars)"Complicit combines Kuehn's characteristically gorgeous prose with riveting plot twists and rich, complicated characters to create an unputdownable thriller with style and substance to spare." --Book Riot"A bright, conflicted hero struggles to free himself from the past's tightening bonds in this corkscrew of a thriller." --Huffington Post About the Author STEPHANIE KUEHN is the William C.
