McManus, New York Times bestselling author of ONE OF US IS LYING "Altebrando nails the staccato delivery of popular investigative podcasts like Serial . . . Extremely effective in landing emotional punches . . . Taut and thoroughly gripping." - starred review, Publishers Weekly on THE POSSIBLE "The juicy premise is enough to draw mystery/crime fans, and Altebrando unspools details with a deft hand." - BCCB on THE POSSIBLE "This gripping tale, full of unexpected twists and turns, will intrigue readers who enjoy psychological thrillers with a touch of the paranormal." - School Library Journal on THE POSSIBLE "You will not sleep, check your phone or even breathe once you begin reading The Leaving .

Where are their memories hiding? Who or what has engineered the disappearance of their childhood? Bold, inventive, and engaging, The Leaving leaps straight off the page." - Beth Kephardt, author of SMALL DAMAGES and THIS IS THE STORY OF YOU on THE LEAVING, "Altebrando gives a nod to Alfred Hitchcock in this taut thriller . . .

TitleLeadingThe
Synopsis"A taut, evocative thriller that's surprising to the last page." --Karen M. McManus, New York Times bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying There's no hiding on a cruise ship-not even from yourself. Natalie's parents are taking her and her three best friends on a cruise for her seventeenth birthday. A sail -a-bration, they call it. But it's only been a few short months since Natalie's boyfriend died in a tragic accident, and she wants to be anywhere but here. Then she meets a guy on the first night and sparks fly. After a moonlit conversation on a secluded deck of the ship, Natalie pops down to her cabin to get her swimsuit so they can go for a dip. But when she returns, he's gone. Something he said makes her think he might have . . . jumped? No, he couldn't have. But why do her friends think she's crazy for wanting to make sure he's okay? Also, why do they seem to be hiding something from her? And how can she find him when she doesn't even know his name? Most importantly, why is the captain on the intercom announcing the urgent need for a headcount? With her signature thrilling storytelling, the author of The Leaving and The Possible explores our vulnerability to the power of suggestion-and the lies we tell others and ourselves-in a twisting, Hitchcock-inspired mystery with high stakes and dark secrets., From the acclaimed author of The Leaving , another psychological suspense about the power of suggestion, with a Hitchcock-inspired twist.
