Burn Our Bodies Down, Power, Rory

From the author of the New York Times bestseller Wilder Girls comes a feverishly twisty thriller about a girl whose past has always been a mystery--until she decides to return to her mothers hometown . . . where history has a tendency to repeat itself.

Ever since Margot was born, its been just her and her mother, struggling to get along. But thats not enough for Margot. She wants family. She wants a past. And she may have just found the answer: A photograph, pointing her to a town called Phalene. Only, when Margot gets there, its not what she bargained for.

As soon as they see her face, everyone in town knows who Margot belongs to. Its unmistakable--shes a Nielsen. And when a mysterious girl who could be Margots twin is pulled from a fire, Margot realizes that her mother left Phalene for a reason. But was it to hide her past? Or was it to protect Margot from whats still there?

The only thing Margot knows for sure is theres poison in their family tree, and their roots are dug so deeply into Phalene that now that shes there, she might never escape.
