The girl was slumped over the edge of the old clawfoot tub, her eyes tiny shards of broken glass, her expression void of anything. Her long, wet hair dripped onto the floor. She was dead.


The night Katelyn Berkley died, everything changed…


For as long as they can remember, twins Hayley and Taylor Ryan have been able to hear the dead. With a true crime writer and psychiatric nurse for parents, the twins were taught to use their gift to give a voice to the innocent.


When the body of troubled teen Katelyn Berkley is found in her bathtub, the small town of Port Gamble is shaken to its core. The Berkley family had many problems and on the surface Katelyn’s death appears to be a cry for help gone wrong.


But soon the twins begin to receive messages from Katelyn. Something darker was behind her death. As the halls of Kingston High are rocked by the scandal, everyone from the most popular cheerleader to the class outcast could have reason to want her dead.


And as the twins get closer to the truth, it becomes clear that someone is watching them. Are they next on the hitlist?


From the #1 New York Times bestselling author comes an addictive thriller about toxic friendships, dark secrets and the hunt for an unlikely killer. Perfect for fans of Melinda Leigh, James Patterson and ONE OF US IS LYING.

This book was originally published as ENVY. This new edition has been re-edited since its publication in 2011. Hayley and Taylor are twins with a gift. They are able to hear the dead.With a true crime writer and psychiatric nurse for parents, the twins were taught to use their gift to give a voice to the innocent. Katelyn was a friend .. a much closer friend previously... found dead in her bathtub. Suicide...murder ... or accident? The twins begin to receive messages from Katelyn.. and they are convinced that Katelyn was murdered. Everyone from the most popular cheerleader to the class outcast has motive to have her dead. And as the twins get closer to the truth, it becomes clear that someone is watching them. Are they next on the hit list? Although well-written, this is not one of the author's best. It's an intriguing plot if you like paranormal suspense. The characters did not come across as fully formed. Maybe because I'm out of touch with teenagers, at times this seemed to be more for a much younger audience. There didn't seem to be any high points .... and the ending was less than satisfactory. DYING TO BE HER is the second book and hopefully will answer more questions than this one did. That being said. the concept was a good one and I did not feel like my time was wasted. Many thanks to the author / Bookouture / Netgalley for the digital copy of this Paranormal Suspense. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own. 3.5 STARS
