About this listen
Best friends Taylor and Sierra meet a hot guy in a chat room online. Both fall for Jacob's charms, but as usual, the more outgoing and vivacious Sierra overshadows Taylor and wins his attention.
Taylor's devastated - Sierra already kissed Callum, Taylor's secret crush, over the summer holidays. Life's not fair, especially when Sierra's around.
Moving quickly, Sierra sets up a date with Jacob on Friday after school. She asks Taylor and their friends to cover for her. Even though she's upset, Taylor is still Sierra's best friend and agrees to help.
But Sierra abuses the favour and calls to say she's going to spend the night with her date. She doesn't come home all weekend, doesn't answer her phone and nobody's heard from her. Taylor is torn. She doesn't want to betray Sierra by telling her parents but at the same time she's concerned for her welfare.
Finally, Callum convinces her to tell. The police are called and their worst fears are confirmed when Sierra's body is found miles from Melbourne a week later. Devastated, Taylor becomes obsessed with finding Sierra's killer. As clues emerge, Taylor races against time to try to save the predator's next victim.

Risk - Sensational listening!!
My View:
Sensational! This is a book that all families should share with their teenage children.
This book is so good if…if I had the money I would buy the films right to this book and make a feature film! Listening to this book I had a film playing on the big screen in my head.
The settings - wonderfully urban Australian (but this book translates so well to any city or town) , the accents, the dialogue – perfect, accessible and real. The characterisations – so credible you would think the author is writing about her own experience or that of her own family. The narrative – tense and adrenaline raising.
I honestly believe this book has the potential to positively influence the decisions young people may make whilst simultaneously educating the adults around them. Cyber predators are a real threat – listen closely to this story, the message is clear without being condescending. The narrative is powerful, the moral dilemmas are real and contemporary, and the complicated dynamics of relationships are exposed. A great read!

Valuable reading for All teenage girls
This was a book written through the eyes of a very emotional 15-year-old girl. It did go on a bit but the story was sound and a warning of the risks many girls take when they are searching online for their true love. I found the last part of the book a bit frustrating because it didn’t really explain what actually happened which I think was a bit of a cop out on the part of the author. the last part was very emotional and repetitive and started to grate on my nerves a bit.

Finished it in a Day
Schools should take this book on board, I would've loved reading it in high school, instead of the pointless books we did read! It could of taught me a lesson or two. Performance was amazing!

Brilliant
An emotional roller coaster brilliantly weaved together. Highly recommend for not only young adults but anyone with young people in their lives.

Life altering read
Fleur Ferris has created a stunning and genuine narrative that needs to be read by every Year 8 and their parents. I delighted in the detail of her five teenagers, particularly the reference to the blushing gene. With regard to the narrator my only issue is the start of each Chapter is rushed.
