A twenty-year-old crime, an accelerated death penalty, and an
elitist family cover-up: Nyla races against the death row clock to
save a woman the world is rooting for . . . and against. Which side
will you choose? Twenty years ago, eighteen-year-old Francis Quick
was convicted of murdering her best friend, Cora King, and
sentenced to death. Now the highly debated Accelerated Death
Penalty Act has passed giving Frankie thirty final days to live.
Surprising everyone, one of the King family members sets out to
challenge the woefully inadequate evidence and potential innocence
of Frankie Quick. The at-first reluctant but soon-fiery Nyla and
her unexpected ally-handsome country island boy Sam Stack-bring
Frankie's case to the international stage through her YouTube
channel, Death Daze. They step into fame and a hometown battle that
someone's still willing to kill over. But who? The senator? The
philanthropist? The pawn shop owner? Nyla's own mother? Best
advice: Don't go to family dinner at the Kings' estate. More people
will leave in body bags than on their own two feet. And as for
Frankie Quick, she's a gem . . . even if she's guilty. Praise for
We Were Kings: "We Were Kings is the best kind of mystery
novel-intelligent and bursting with heart. As Nyla untangled her
family's secrets, the twists left me breathless." -Brittany
Cavallaro, New York Times bestselling author "Bingeable.
Atmospheric. A book that grabs hold and doesn't let go. We Were
Kings offers a delicious mystery perfect for fans of We Were Liars
and A Good Girl's Guide to Murder. I savored every word from
beginning to end." -Caroline George, author of The Summer We Forgot
Young Adult suspense with some romance Stand-alone novel Includes
discussion questions for book clubs
