A house party spirals into murder in this taut thriller laced with icy suspense and devastating secrets.
‘It’s hard to say what’s more terrifying, the darkness of the surrounding wilderness, or the darkness that lies inside even the most normal-seeming people.’—Ginny Myers Sain, author of Dark and Shallow Lies
In the frozen wilderness of Alaska, Finley, Mya, River, and Eli were inseparable—until tragedy shattered their bond and drove Finley away. Now it’s senior year, and she’s back, hoping to reclaim the friendships she lost. But when Mya throws a house party on a snowy night, Finley realizes the group isn’t what it used to be. And maybe they never were.
Then a stranger crashes the party. Then someone ends up dead. Then everything unravels.
As the four teens scramble to hide what happened, their secrets begin to surface—and the lies they tell each other might be the most dangerous of all. How far will they go to protect each other? And who’s worth saving?
Genre: Young Adult Fiction

"The Trespassers asks the question, 'If you show up with a body, will your best friends grab the shovel?' and pushes the moral compass further with, 'Should they?'
