He's lost a lot just in the past summer and moving to a town a bit of a drive away from his only friend, getting misgendered constantly, and suffering the incompetence of teachers, Ray can only do so much. Then comes along this goofball, who's part of a club dedicated to studying serial killers On top of that, the goofball is connected to a serial killer who is rearing their ugly head again for the first time in fifteen years Is it a copycat or the real thing? Can Ray break through his own demons and help someone else fight theirs?
"Behind me, the sky was falling in. Slowly drifting down. That's the last thing my broken eye saw before it all went black. Do you believe me?" No one's touched the buffet, there's a big gap on the wall where a mirror's fallen off and something is stinking the place out. Julie and Ruby are sisters coming to terms with the death of formidable matriarch Iris who still manages to control their lives from beyond the grave. On the night of the funeral, Julie gets off with Gerry, the crime scene cleaner. Maybe that'll help. It doesn't. When their mother's unusual bequest unearths a story that leaves some indelible marks, something more than a deep clean is needed.
Sixteen-year-old Iris Capaldi led an entirely ordinary life before the accident. There were no make-out sessions with her best friend, Benji. No homicidal skinheads. No unexplainable flying creatures. And no ridiculously cute, teenaged aliens. Since the accident, however, the bizarre has become the ordinary. It's an unusual day if she's not kissing Jamen, her extraterrestrial classmate, arguing with her impulsive, dead mother, or almost dying herself. Suspenseful, insightful and fun, Iris effortlessly blends love, loss and the paranormal in an unpredictable teen romance that will enthrall fans of The Hunger Games and Twilight, as well as anyone drawn to the endless possibilities of first love . . . no matter how extraordinary the circumstances.
