In the second book of the suspenseful Shade Me trilogy, perfect for fans of Sara Shepard's Pretty Little Liars and Kimberly McCreight's The Outliers, Nikki Kill becomes embroiled in another mystery with the gorgeous Detective Martinez when she discovers that the Hollises are trying frame her for the murder of Peyton Hollis-and only her synesthesia can help her unravel the dark truth. Nikki Kill didn't realize that trying to find out who killed Peyton Hollis would tangle her in a web of dangerous family secrets that would rock her identity to the core. But now that Nikki knows the truth, the all-powerful Hollises want to frame her for Peyton's murder. And now Nikki's only chance at escaping the cold black bars of prison or the crimson grip of death is teaming up with the enigmatic Detective Martinez and relying on an ever-shifting kaleidoscope of clues...

Reviews"Brown's series is a must-have for older teens and as a crossover title for mystery and thriller fans seeking a young, feisty protagonist. The satisfying but open conclusion begs for more Nikki Kill adventures." - Booklist PRAISE FOR SHADE ME: "This dark tale hits all the hallmarks of a traditional hardboiled mystery, full of dirty secrets and potential betrayals. Brown (Torn Away) skillfully uses Nikki's condition to put a fresh spin on time-honored noir conventions." - Publishers Weekly "Nikki is a force to be reckoned with." - School Library Journal "Nikki's endearingly heedless with a careless confidence, and her tenacity may earn respect." - Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "SHADE ME is a wild ride, illuminating the gritty side of Los Angeles and the beautiful people who populate it. Fans of Veronica Mars will fall in love with Nikki Kill." - Michelle Gagnon, author of the Don't Turn Around trilogy
