Alexis left her hometown after graduation and never looked back- that is, until she received the news of her grandmother's passing. Reluctant to return to the town and the people who caused her so much pain, Alexis makes the trip anyway, hoping to say her final goodbyes to her grandmother with minimal interactions with anyone else in the forsaken town.

As the demons of her past present themselves to her in full force, Alexis is determined to make it through her grandmother's farewell and return to her new life- far away from here.

Will Alexis be strong enough to survive the brutal reminders of the past, or will they break her once again?

Ambys 2024 Top Picks for Mystery/Thriller Since homecoming night senior year, Aisling Turner has lived in a hell of her mother's creation. For five years, she's been trapped in Florida, wondering why she can't remember anything about the night her best friend disappeared. Cut off from the only family who ever loved her and all she's ever known. It took five years, but she finally escaped and returned to the small town of Davies, Oklahoma. Everything and nothing is the same. But she's determined to make peace with her guilt. To say goodbye to Grams. To start over in the only place she's ever felt at home. If the town will let her, that is. Years later, most people still think she murdered her friend in the woods that night. Even Aisling isn't so sure she's completely innocent. Apparently, one of those "concerned citizens" believes Aisling knows more than she claims. They set off a chain reaction that puts Aisling on a path with Brett, her old high school crush, and his best friend, Deputy Leo, to discover what actually happened that night. Aisling isn't completely sure she wants to know. But like the drive to come home, the desire to know the truth is too strong. Even if it destroys her.

Take No Notice ✓ by AdultOfTheFuture

[ A COMPLETED 2020 TEEN MYSTERY ] Life can take a turn for the worst when you least expect it, spiralling deeply out of control in mere days. It's hard to see the signs sometimes; it may be personality changes, or even just an odd remark, but if we don't recognise these differences then grave consequences await us. It could be failing an important test, missing a friend's birthday, but sometimes people take it a little too far... A text. A fire. A killer. Who can we really trust in this world? And do we need to look closer to sense great deception? _________________________ Achievements: 🥈Second Place in the EC Awards - Mystery/Thriller Rated Eighty Plus in Shreya's Book Reviews 🥈 Second Place in the Carnation Awards - Mystery/Thriller 🥇 First Place in The Candle Light Awards _________________________ (Cover by @-carawrites) (Images found from the internet, credits to Lily Collins and party) All Rights Reserved.
