(4) YA Eleven years after six kindergartners disappeared, five of them return, all with amnesia. Returnees Scarlett and Lucas try to make sense of their fractured memories, while Avery, the sister of the missing sixth teen, receives mysterious warning notes, supposedly from him. Though Scarlett and Lucas's romance doesn't hold up as a plot engine, the vivid prose and twisty mystery will pull readers through.
