"Anna Cayne had moved here in August, just before our sophomore
year in high school, but by February she had, one by one, killed
everyone in town."
Anna--who prefers to be called Anastasia--is a slightly spooky
and complicated high school girl with a penchant for riddles,
Houdini tricks, and ghost stories. She spends much of her time
writing obituaries for every living person in town. She is unlike
anyone the narrator has ever known, and they make an unlikely,
though happy, pair.
Then a week before Valentine's Day, Anna disappears, leaving
behind only a dress placed neatly near a hole in the frozen river,
and a string of unanswered questions. Desperate to find her, or at
least to comprehend what happened and why, the narrator begins to
reconstruct the past five months. And soon the fragments of curious
events, intimate conversations, secrets, and peculiar letters (and
the anonymous messages that continue to arrive) coalesce into
haunting and surprising revelations that may implicate friends,
relatives, and even Anna herself.
