Overview
An atmospheric thriller from Nichelle Giraldes that'll make you question whether you can trust anyone, even those closest to you. The forest is hungry, and her family's secrets are tangled in the trees... Lia Gregg always hoped to outgrow her fear of the woods surrounding her childhood home. The dark, menacing trees have long been the site of whispered legends and disappearances of girls like her. But after a breakup sends her back to live with her family, the woods feel more sinister than ever. When a teenage girl disappears from their backyard, Lia's childhood fear becomes terrifyingly real. The missing girls are no longer just faces on the news. Now, the danger is closer than she imagined, and her younger sister could be next. As Lia digs into the disappearances, she begins to suspect her mother knows more about the forest-and the horrors within-than she's letting on. To save her sister and uncover the truth, Lia must confront the secrets lurking in the trees and the darkness they conceal...before it's too late.

Reviews
""Brilliantly conceived, The Forest of Missing Girls is chilling, compelling, and utterly terrifying. "" --Marlee Bush, author of Whispers of Dead Girls ""The Forest of Missing Girls is a chilling, page-turning story about beauty, sacrifice, complicated love, and one truly terrifying forest. Through an ever-twisting, seriously creepy tale, Giraldes explores the bonds between sisters and mothers and daughters--bonds that are sometimes glorious, sometimes grotesque, but always fundamental. Fast-paced and thrilling, this book was so hard to put down!"" --Chelsea Iversen, author of The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt
