The police station where Jay is being booked for car theft and Liva is in custody after witnessing a brutal murder is attacked. As the teens wildly flee murderers through NYC, they are each forced to look beyond initial prejudices. Though it goes a little off the rails, this truly tense, plot-driven thriller reveals some surprising depth in its subplots.

Seventeen-year-old Ren is spending the summer nannying for a family on Nantucket, far from her London home. It's a summer of danger (for the second year, a foreign nanny is murdered) and romance (Ren's torn between rich, charming Jeremy and bad boy Jesse and his "Abercrombie chest"). This addictive, Gossip Girl–esque read is full of secrets, parties, privilege, passion, and suspense.
