This novel was fascinating! Originally it seemed it was going to be just another book about teens, gangbangers, and drug addiction, but it was so much more! Showing the dark side of journalism, politics, and police procedures, Reed delves deep into the underbelly of Chicago's drug trade to show "poison girls," young affluent white teens who are drawn to fentanyl-laced heroin which is usually a death sentence. Who is behind it all and is there something more sinister at work here than just the "usual suspects"? Journalist Natalie investigates and is drawn into the lives of two cousins, Anna and Libby as she tries to uncover the truth. But there are layers and layers of deception as she is drawn deeper and is implicated in one of the deaths. Based on real events, the novel is raw and poignant, questioning where does an investigative journalist draw the line and whom do we believe when there are lies everywhere? This is a real page-turner!

This was a fantastic read. It kept me enthralled and I was shocked with some parts! I would recommend it to anyone!

This book was beautifully written! It felt so real, like this is something that could really happen! Hooked from the first page! AMAZING!
