FROM THE BEST-SELLING AUTHOR OF THE CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED NOVEL, THE SHADOW COLLECTOR Once Upon A Time Joe Brophy did the right thing by the girl he got pregnant in high school...and Petticoat Hawke never forgave him for breaking her heart. All these years later, 'what could have been' still crackles between them. But... A Collection of Kids ...so do secrets. So do lies. For on a night long ago, a friend with a soul darker than a starless night convinced one of them to unleash all their pent-up rage--an act of violence whose disastrous domino effect ended with the disappearance of two minors. Learned That Fear Silenced by guilt, and haunted by horror, those reckless kids became adults who locked every skeleton behind a conspiracy of silence. But the past always has long enough arms to reach you, and when a literal skeleton is exhumed from their old party spot, those lost kids will be forced to face their history--and one will confess to a crime that... Was A High Like No Other
