Into the Sublime

A chilling YA psychological thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end."Gripping and breathless, Into the Sublime is equal parts terrifying, claustrophobic, psychological, and cunning." —Wendy Heard, author of She's Too Pretty to Burn and Dead End GirlsFrom Kate A. Boorman, the author of What We Buried, comes a new YA mystery about four teenage girls who descend into a dangerous underground cave system in search of a legendary lake, said to reveal your deepest fears.When the cops arrive, only a few things are clear:- Four girls entered a dangerous cave.- Three of them came out alive.- Two of them were rushed to the hospital.- And one is soaked in blood and ready to talk.Amelie Desmarais' story begins believably enough: Four girls from a now-defunct thrill-seeking group planned an epic adventure to find "The Sublime," a Colorado lake rumored to have the power to change things for those who risk—and survive—its cavernous depths. Each had their reasons for going, but as Amelie's account unwinds, things get complicated. She's hardly the thrill-seeking type, and it appears she's not the only one with the ability to deceive.Worse yet, Amelie is covered in someone's blood, but whose exactly? And where's the fourth girl? Is Amelie spinning a tale to cover her guilt? Or was something inexplicable waiting for them down there? Strange things inhabit dark places, and sometimes we bring the dark with us.
