What happens in the woods, stays in the woods. . . Carey is keeping
a terrible secret. If she tells, it could destroy her future. If
she doesn't, will she ever be free? For almost as long as she can
remember, Carey has lived in a camper van in the heart of the woods
with her drug-addicted mother and six-year-old sister, Jenessa. Her
mother routinely disappears for weeks at a time, leaving the girls
to cope alone. Survival is Carey's only priority - until strangers
arrive and everything changes . . . Jenny Downham, author of BEFORE
I DIE, says that IF YOU FIND ME is "a beautiful book about
survival, identity, family, love and so much more."
Bonus content: Turn to the back for a brand new epilogue, and a
sneak peek at the first chapter of Emily's next novel
"There are some things you can't leave behind . . .
"In "If You Find Me "by Emily Murdoch, a broken-down camper hidden
deep in a national forest is the only home fifteen year-old Carey
can remember. The trees keep guard over her threadbare existence,
with the one bright spot being Carey's younger sister, Jenessa, who
depends on Carey for her very survival. All they have is each
other, as their mentally ill mother comes and goes with greater
frequency. Until that one fateful day their mother has disappeared
for good, and two strangers arrive. Suddenly, the girls are taken
from the woods and thrust into a bright and perplexing new world of
high school, clothes and boys.
Now, Carey must face the truth of why her mother abducted her ten
years ago, while haunted by a past that won't let her go . . . a
dark past that hides many secrets, including the reason Jenessa
hasn't spoken a word in over a year. Carey knows she must keep her
sister close, and her secrets even closer, or risk watching her new
life come crashing down.
