With its taut-pacing and lyrical writing, Andrea Beatyâs critically acclaimed mystery has been hailed as Âthe kind of satisfying read that summer is all aboutâ (School Library Journal).
Now in paperback!
Â
Lily has read every Nancy Drew book in the library. Sheâs great at spying clues and keeping secrets. She has to be. She has secrets of her own that no one can ever find out.
When summer brings lying, stealing Tinny Bridges to town, Lily must depend on her own wits to keep ahead of this sly newcomer. Tinny takes candy from the general store and blames Lily. She tries to steal Lilyâs friends and even her fatherâs affection. Worst of all, she seems to know Lilyâs secret. When Tinny goes missing, only Lily has an idea what happened to her. But for Lily, finding Tinny means confronting her hidden past.
