“Thea’s cousin Aulus is missing and is likely the latest June Boy to be taken by serial kidnapper, The Gemini Thief, who has eluded authorities in her small town for over ten years. As we readers join the search with Thea and her three closest friends in their efforts to unravel the mystery, we uncover disturbing facts, weird coincidences, and oddball characters. The twists and turns keep coming. Intermittent chapters in the form of letters written in the first person voice of Aulus give a view of the captors’ predicaments and torment inside the hidden bunker. Tragedy and hope fill this page-turning thriller.”
— Becky • Rediscovered Books
This audiobook edition includes:
- The full-length, stand-alone Young Adult suspense novel
- A bonus scene with one of the Gemini Thief survivors
- A Q&A between Court Stevens and Ruta Sepetys, New York Times bestselling author of Fountains of Silence
From award-winning and highly acclaimed author Court Stevens comes a gripping, emotional story of small towns, rumors, and thirteen missing boys.
The Gemini Thief could be anyone.
For nearly a decade the Gemini Thief, a serial kidnapper who abducts three boys on June 1st, has terrorized Tennessee. The June Boys being held captive endure thirteen months of being stolen, hidden, observed, and fed before they are released, unharmed, by their masked captor. The Thief is a pro, managing to elude authorities while abducting over twelve boys over the past ten years. No one knows why—but they do know they don’t want to be next.
Now Thea Delacroix has reason to believe the Gemini Thief has taken a thirteenth victim: her cousin, Aulus.
But the twisted game begins to change: one of the kidnapped boys turns up dead. With the help of her best friends and her boyfriend Nick, Thea is determined to find the Gemini Thief and the remaining boys before it’s too late. Only she’s beginning to wonder something sinister, something repulsive, something unbelievable, and yet, not impossible:
What if someone she knows is the Gemini Thief?
