Summary

Description:
On the night she wins the prestigious Young Artist Award, Selene's triumph is hijacked. The host, Cyrus, unveils a 'surprise'—the biological parents who abandoned her as an infant, now weeping on stage to claim her success. They try to bind her with the chains of filial duty and public shame. But Selene has a secret weapon: she plays by their rules, only better. With the cameras rolling and the world watching, she masterfully turns their emotional manipulation against them. What begins as a tearful plea for reunion spirals into a spectacular showdown of reverse psychological warfare. Selene is determined to protect the only father she's ever known—the man who rescued her from a snowbank—and she'll use every tool, including their own toxic guilt, to do it. A sharp, suspenseful tale of justice, family, and the art of fighting fire with fire.

    The disappearance of a mysterious informant leads two people desperate for answers to an island of deadly deception in this new novel in the Lost Night Files trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz. 
     
    Talia March, Pallas Llewellyn, and Amelia Rivers, bonded by a night none of them can remember, are dedicated to uncovering the mystery of what really happened to them months ago—an experience that amplified innate psychic abilities in each of them. The women suspect they were test subjects years earlier, and that there are more people like them—all they have to do is find the list of others who took that same test. When Talia follows up on a lead from Phoebe Hatch, a fan of the trio’s podcast, she discovers that the informant has vanished. 
     
    Talia isn’t the only one looking for Phoebe, however. Luke Rand, a hunted and haunted man who is chasing the same list that Talia is after, also shows up at the meeting place. It’s clear he has his own agenda, and they are instantly suspicious of each other. But when a killer begins to stalk them, they realize they have to join forces to find Phoebe and the list. 
     
    The rocky investigation leads Talia and Luke to a rustic, remote retreat on Night Island in the Pacific Northwest, where the Unplugged Experience promises to rejuvenate guests.  
     
    Upon their arrival, Talia and Luke discover they are quite literally cut off from the outside world when none of their high-tech devices work on the island. It soon becomes clear that Phoebe is not the first person to disappear into the strange gardens that surround the Unplugged Experience.  
     
    And then the first mysterious death occurs. … 
     
    “Krentz is back with an adrenaline-infused, paranormal-tinged romantic suspense novel that makes the most of its isolated island setting … Readers will come for Krentz’s can’t-putit-down plotting and stay for the combustible sexual chemistry and delightfully quippy banter.”—Booklist, starred review
