And then Miranda finds a mysterious note scrawled on a tiny slip of paper: I am coming to save your friend’s life, and my own. I must ask two favors. First, you must write me a letter.The notes keep coming, and Miranda slowly realizes that whoever is leaving them knows all about her, including things that have not even happened yet.

Until the final note makes her think she’s too late.Book Details:Format: HardcoverPublication Date: 7/14/2009Pages: 208Reading Level: Age 9 and Up
