A su famosa y aclamada madre se le ha ocurrido la idea de enviarla al carisimo y exclusivo colegio Pembroke, donde entra solo gracias a la importancia de su apellido. Pero ella no tiene intencion de encajar en Pembroke. Decide que no piensa quedarse mucho. Ni en el colegio ni en el planeta. Pero cuando conoce a la peculiar y deslumbrante Remy Taft, la chica mas rica y misteriosa del centro, empieza a vislumbrar un lugar en este mundo extrano, un hueco en el que tal vez pueda encajar. Cuando Willa mira a Remy, ve a una chica que lo tiene todo. Pero, para esta, tenerlo todo conlleva un precio. Y, a medida que va perdiendo el control, siente que Remy se le escapa. En el fondo de su alma, Willa siempre ha querido pertenecer a algun lugar. Pero si la chica que le mostro este nuevo mundo, esta alejandose de la realidad, estara ella destinada a seguirla en su espiral autodestructiva? La sincera e incandescente novela de Andrea Portes indaga en el significado de la amistad, de los nuevos comienzos, de la alegria fragil y del horrible dolor de encontrar el hogar en un lugar, o en una persona, que tiene alas para salir volando. -Espero sinceramente que no te comportes mal mientras estes con nosotros, Willa. Yo asiento con la cabeza para tranquilizarla. -Por supuesto que no. Jamas haria algo asi. Y es verdad. En ese momento lo digo en serio. Totalmente en serio. Ahora me dan ganas de reirme al recordarlo. Al recordar aquel momento. Me reiria sin parar. Si tuviera gracia. Pero resulta que no la tuvo. Ya sabeis, por todo lo que ocurrio despues.

If twenty-five years can discover the internet, the cell phone, this thing called the iPod, can twenty-five years discover the secret of a girl murdered, abandoned, by the side of the road? That is the haunting premise of Bury This, an impressionistic literary thriller about the murder of a young girl in small-town Michigan in 1979. Beth Krause was by all intents a good little girl -- member of the church choir, beloved daughter of doting parents, friend to the downtrodden. But dig a little deeper into any small town, and conflicts and jealousies begin to appear. And somewhere is that heady mix lies the answer to what really happened to Beth Krause. Her unsolved murder becomes the stuff of town legend, and twenty-five years later the case is re-ignited when a group of film students start making a documentary on Beth's fateful life.The town has never fully healed over the loss of Beth, and the new investigation calls into light several key characters: her father, a WWII vet; her mother, once the toast of Manhattan; her best friend, abandoned by her mother and left to fend for herself against an abusive father; and the detective, just a rookie when the case broke, haunted by his inability to bring Beth's murderer to justice. All of these passions will collide once the identity of Beth's murderer is revealed, proving once again that some secrets can never stay buried.
