This emotional debut thriller follows a teen girl being haunted by the ghost of her toxic ex-girlfriend, who gives her a chilling ultimatum—help her possess another girl or go down for her murder.
"A blistering exploration of the ugliest and tenderest parts of love, Kennedy turns the classic ghost story on its head."—Courtney Gould, author of The Dead and the Dark
Maya has always belonged to Alana. After four years of dating, and on the precipice of graduating high school, Maya has been too terrified to consider the idea of life outside of their volatile relationship. Until she finds the courage to break up with Alana while they’re hiking in Southern California.
Then Alana goes missing. As the police get involved and the media run wild with the story, everyone seems to think that Maya is lying about Alana’s disappearance. Secretly, Maya knows they’re right: if Alana’s dead, she’s the one to blame.
But that’s not Maya’s only secret. Alana isn’t gone, not really—and she isn’t going to let Maya go so easily…
Reviews
"A spine-tingling ghost story from an exciting new voice. I can't wait to read what Kara A. Kennedy writes next."—Kara Thomas, author of The Cheerleaders“Haunting, healing, and unforgettable... I absolutely adored Kennedy’s emotional, atmospheric debut—and its narrator, Maya, a girl clawing her way back to herself. I Will Never Leave You has a high-stakes plot that will have you tearing through the pages but writing so gorgeous, you’ll want to linger on every line.” —Allison Saft, New York Times bestselling author of A Far Wilder Magic
“Rippling with atmosphere and edge-of-your-seat thrills.”—Rory Power, New York Times bestselling author of Wilder Girls
"A modern ghost story told with hauntingly beautiful prose."—Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge
