Five years have passed since sixteen-year-old Angie Favorite's mother disappeared without a trace. Since that day, Angie has managed to go through the motions of everyday life--until the summer morning when she's abducted from a mall parking lot. Angie narrowly escapes, and her attacker is arrested, but he takes his life in jail before he can offer an explanation for his crime. When his mother contacts Angie, begging forgiveness on her son's behalf, the girl agrees to meet with her in hopes of finding answers to the seemingly random attack. But when she arrives at the family's massive estate, she is overcome by an unshakeable sense of foreboding...

Part thriller, part coming-of-age tale, Favorite is an engrossing young adult novel in which nothing--and no one--is as it seems.
