About this ebook
Twin Peaks meets Stars Hollow in this paranormal suspense novel about a boy who can reach inside people and steal their innermost things—fears, memories, scars, even love.
“The characters shine in this brilliant page-turner with a supernatural twist.”—Beth Revis, New York Times bestselling author of the Across the Universe trilogy
“The mind games are acrobatic in their twists and turns.”—BCCB
“A fresh and substantive story about family, love, and deciding who you want to be in the world.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
You can’t find what you don’t remember losing.
Aspen Quick can reach inside you with his mind and steal anything he wants—knowledge, memories, even love. You’ll never know what he’s doing, so you’ll never catch him. Besides, it’s his family’s ancient ritual that prevents the cliff above his town from collapsing and killing everyone below, so isn’t he entitled to some kind of reward for keeping everyone safe?
But Aspen’s not the only Quick with the ability to steal, and this summer he becomes a target, which finally forces him to take a closer look at his family’s abilities and the secret they’ve kept hidden for so many generations. Aspen will have to decide what kind of person he wants to be . . . in a family that has the ability to control everything you are.

It was an okay book but I finished it within hours of starting. The ending was predictable.

About the author
Lindsay Ribar lives in New York City, where she works in book publishing by day and writes YA novels by night. She is the author of The Art of Wishing, The Fourth Wish, and Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies, as well as The Pros of Cons (co-written with Alison Cherry and Michelle Schusterman).

Ask her about her Harry Potter tattoo.
