Description
From the author of The Truth Beneath the Lies, which the bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying, Karen M. McManus, called smart, suspenseful, and unpredictable, comes a psychological thriller about a girl who must keep her arsonist ways hidden--or watch her life go up in flames like a wildfire.
Jenny didn't want to move to the creepy, possibly haunted town with her dad. But the cops are on to her, and the only way she can protect herself is by moving as far away from her hometown as possible and staying out of trouble.
But even after she moves, Jenny still gets the itch. The itch to light a match and then watch it burn.
It's something she hasn't been able to stop, ever since an accident years ago. Now, in a new town, Jenny has the strange feeling that someone is watching her every move. Will her arsonist ways be exposed? Or is the burning truth deep inside her a greater danger?

A smart, suspenseful, and unpredictable thriller that will keep readers turning pages until every last lie is revealed.--Karen M. McManus, New York Times betselling author of One of Us is Lying
Readers will be left breathless, the hair on the backs of their necks standing up. An intricately plotted thriller that's both gritty and engrossing.--Kirkus, starred review
