For fans of Wintergirls, The Delinquent Hero is a heart-wrenching mystery about a grieving teen's search for answers about her anorexic sister's sudden and tragic accident.
It's the haunting question in these situations: why?
Everyone is saying Kat fell and hit her head, causing a catastrophic brain bleed. She's severely malnourished and on life support, and in a few days, the doctors will remove the ventilator.
But when 18-year-old Molly visits her sister's rental house, it looks more like a crime scene that someone cleaned up. Stories about what happened are inconsistent.
Later at the hospital, when Molly whispers into her sister's ear about the odd things she discovered, alarms start wailing on Kat's cardiac monitor. It's like, even though she's supposedly brain dead, some part of Kat still hears her. Like maybe something evil happened in that house.
Like maybe someone tried to murder her.
Don't miss this raw and unforgettable story of a complicated sisterhood, eating disorders, and loss.
