From the award-winning author of The Scamp, Jennifer Pashley is back with a searing literary noir about what it means to live on the margins of society and what happens when no one is watching... Pearl Jenkins is a nobody. She was a woman who lived as a hermit in the woods. One day, shes nowhere to be found, and all thats left behind is a pool of blood and a child no one knew existed, raised completely off the grid and in the grip of Pearls manic paranoia. Kateri Fisher is used to being an outsider. Now, shes the only female detective in the tiny upstate New York town of Spring Falls, where everyone knows everyone, but no one will talk. Its fitting that she takes the case that no one else wants. But as Kateri struggles to navigate the harsh rules of a new town while trying to learn the truth about the Jenkins family, only one thing becomes clear: neither she nor Pearl are as invisible as she first thought. Someones always watching.About author(s):Jennifer Pashley is the award-winning author of two short story collections, States, and The Conjurer, and a novel, The Scamp.
