Synopsis

In this terrifying psychological thriller, a diary discovered in the burned out ruins of a long forgotten high school unearths the twisted truth behind the deadly fire. Welcome to the Dead House. Three students: dead. Carly Johnson: vanished without a trace. Two decades have passed since an inferno swept through Elmbridge High, claiming the lives of three teenagers and causing one student, Carly Johnson, to disappear. The main suspect: Kaitlyn, "the girl of nowhere." Kaitlyn's diary, discovered in the ruins of Elmbridge High, reveals the thoughts of a disturbed mind. Its charred pages tell a sinister version of events that took place that tragic night, and the girl of nowhere is caught in the center of it all. But many claim Kaitlyn doesn't exist, and in a way, she doesn't—because she is the alter ego of Carly Johnson. Carly gets the day. Kaitlyn has the night. It's during the night that a mystery surrounding the Dead House unravels and a dark, twisted magic ruins the lives of each student that dares touch it. Dawn Kurtagich delivers a thrilling and terrifying story using psychiatric reports, witness testimonials, video footage, and the discovered diary—and as the mystery grows, the horrifying truth about what happened that night unfolds.

Goodreads review by Beth on November 10, 2015

Despite the fantastic premise, this book is a complete and utter cluster-fuck. It's not just that there's a lot going on - there isn't, really - but it seems like the goalposts are shifting every five seconds. It's a story about two girls who share a body, which may be a product of a paranormal inci......more
