Description
The first book in the Solitary Tales suspense series will remind you what it means to believe in what you cannot see.
His Loneliness Will Soon Turn to Fear....
When Chris Buckley moves to Solitary, North Carolina, he faces the reality of his parents' divorce, a school full of nameless faces-and Jocelyn Evans. Jocelyn is beautiful and mysterious enough to leave Chris speechless. But the more Jocelyn resists him, the more the two are drawn together.
Chris soon learns that Jocelyn has secrets as deep as the town itself. Secrets more terrifying than the bullies he faces in the locker room or his mother's unexplained nightmares. He slowly begins to understand the horrific answers. The question is whether he can save Jocelyn in time.
This
first book in the Solitary Tales series will take you from the cold
halls of high school to the dark rooms of an abandoned cabin-and remind
you what it means to believe in what you cannot see.
The author of a dozen works of fiction, including Isolation and Ghostwriter,
Travis Thrasher has been writing since he was in the third grade. His
writing is known for its honesty, depth, and surprising twists. Thrasher
lives with his wife and daughter near Chicago.
Advance Praise
"A Y.A. novel for the hip, the savvy, the thinker-outside-the-box-and anybody else who wants a great read. And don't even try to predict this one. Just hang on and let it take you straight into the real world of the newest generation."
Nancy Rue, bestselling author of tween and young adult fiction
"Solitary is a cautionary tale, startling and suspenseful. The characters are unforgettable, the prose stark, and the dialogue masterful. Travis Thrasher is a versatile storyteller who walks his readers through life's uncertainties, while leading them toward glimmers of hope."
Eric Wilson, New York Times bestselling author of Valley of Bones
"Thrasher has proven his niche within young adult fiction. His riveting portrayal of the conflicting teenage mind is raw and insightful. When considering high school fiction for your library collection, this book is a must!"
