Wick and Lily’s father is an abuser and a criminal, and it’s been up to Wick to protect the naïve Lily ever since their mother jumped to her death well-to-do foster parents Bren and Todd have given the girls a second chance, but Wick is still in survival mode. Wicket Tate kicks into high gear with her hacking skills when her little sister is threatened following another girl’s suicide. I needed to follow this tough heroine through grim revelations to find out if everything would be okay! – Jay Asher – Sophie JordanįIND ME is a thriller that keeps picking up speed. Bernard is an exceptional new voice in YA. (Oct.)įast-paced and full of twists, FIND ME will leave you breathless. Agent: Sarah Davies, Greenhouse Literary.
Throw in Wick’s burgeoning romance with classmate Griff and a genuinely suspenseful ending, and Bernard’s debut is effective as both high-intensity action novel and character study, and ripe for a sequel.
While Wick’s fears and suspicions initially seem overwrought, they grow to become entirely reasonable as she’s forced to make some very adult decisions. Then there are the memories churned up when a childhood friend kills herself, and her diary ends up in Wick’s hands. Wick isn’t even sure she can trust herself-what if she’s too much like her father? Although Wick and Lily now have nice clothes and a stable living environment, the cop looking for their father keeps coming around, and their father’s partner can still force Wick to work for him. Here are some things Wick Tate knows: how to hack into almost any system that, between her mother’s suicide and her abusive drug-dealing father, she’s responsible for keeping her sister, Lily, safe and that no matter how loving their new foster parents seem, she can’t trust them or anyone else.
