LIV, FOREVER

Book ID/图书代码: 11518013B65867

English Summary/英文概要: *Gripping thriller from award-winning screenwriter and director Amy Talkington*

Sixteen-year-old Liv Bloom is a quirky aspiring artist who has somehow managed to escape a dead-end foster child life: she landed a scholarship at Wickham Hall, a prestigious New England boarding school. Amused (and overwhelmed) by its weird traditions and rituals, she plunges in to life at Wickham blind to its darkest secret. Over the past 150 years, students have been murdered in the name of an unimaginable conspiracy. Unbeknownst to anyone but the victims—and Gabe Nichols, a poor kid Liv’s age, cursed with an ability to see the dead—the spirits linger on campus.

Liv’s first six weeks at Wickham are a whirlwind of unexpected romance. Malcolm Astor, scion of one of the school’s original families, falls for her. Malcolm does seem different than the other “Wickies:” for starters, he knows more about art than she does. Gabe warns her not to get involved, but she can’t help herself. By the time she realizes she’s in love, too, she becomes Wickham Hall’s next victim: murdered by an unseen assailant, with the crime expertly covered up as a suicide.

With Gabe’s help, she is able to prove to the bereft Malcolm that she’s still present … lingering with the other dead. Together, Liv, Gabe, and Malcolm expose the terrible truth that has haunted Wickham—literally and figuratively—since its founding.

《鬼女孩》作者譚雅‧荷利讚賞:”Readers will die for Liv”

對Liv來說,能拿到獎學金進到充滿藝文氛圍、哥德式大廳、神秘的特殊傳統與儀式的Wickham Hall就讀根本是美夢成真!而且入校不久,Liv就與其中一位創校者的後裔Malcolm墜入愛河。

美夢成真的喜悅讓她忽略,這所學校創校150年以來死了無數學生!
除了死人…沒人知道受害者是以何種「順序」被殺的。

而這一次,輪到Liv了。

她的死被偽裝成自殺,Malcolm為失去她而痛心,但其實她一直在他身邊…和其他的受害者靈魂一起飄盪在校園中。

女主角在故事中途就死了,該如何為自己沉冤昭雪,揭開百年校園的血腥黑歷史,還有對年輕女孩最重要的,完結這遺留無盡遺憾的真愛…?
(Eva)
