A Whisper from the Past. A Secret Worth Killing For.

Before Willow Creek became a town of secrets, Claire Anderson was just a freshman trying to find her place at NYU. But when a fellow student is silenced on the eve of her big debut, Claire and her new friend Sam are drawn into a haunting mystery that will echo for years to come.

Set six years before The Last Snapshot, this prequel novella unravels the origins of Claire’s sleuthing instincts—and the shadowy threads of a secret society that won’t stay buried.
