Author(s): Amber Hart

Teenage/Young Adult Fiction

They say nothing good comes from living in the Devil's swamp. Willow Bell doesn't think moving to the Okefenokee is half bad, but nothing prepares her for what awaits in the shadows of the bog, or for the hot boy next door, who might just be the trouble people speak of. Beneath his wicked sea-blue eyes and the allure that draws girls to him, Beau Cadwell is sinister to the core. Where Beau goes, chaos follows. His lips are full of twisted grins and lies, the girls say. He's evil in disguise, warns Gran. It isn't until girls wind up dead in the swamp that Willow wonders if maybe Beau's more frightening than she can handle. His riddles tell her that he's someone to be wary of, but his touch tells her that she can trust him. Problem is, which is true? It's hard to tell with a boy like him.
