The Trespassers

De: Jennifer Lynn Alvarez

In the frozen depths of an Alaskan winter, a house party turns deadly in this tightly wound thriller packed with icy suspense and devastating secrets.

You think you can bury the past... but some truths refuse to stay hidden.

Finley, Mya, River, and Eli were inseparable as kids, running wild on Alaska’s vast wide-open spaces. Then tragedy struck, and Finley moved to the lower 48. But now it’s Senior year, and Finley’s back in Anchorage. When Mya throws a house party on a snowy Valentine’s Day night, it’s supposed to be a chance for the friends to heal old wounds. But an encounter with a mysterious stranger quickly turns the evening into a nightmare.

As the group scrambles to cover up what they’ve done, the fault lines they’ve grown so good at ignoring begin to crack as the police investigate and the media hounds them. Are they the most vicious teens in America, or deeply misunderstood? Everyone wants to know—even the teens themselves.

Fast-paced and thrillingly tense, The Trespassers explores guilt, loyalty, and the complex nature of friendship.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“The Trespassers asks the question, ‘If you show up with a body, will your best friends grab the shovel?’ and pushes the moral compass further with, ‘Should they?’ The Alaskan setting is as chilling as the secrets these friends carry—both the ones that bind them together and the ones fracturing them apart. Alvarez plunges the reader into an icy thrill ride to see who can get away with murder.” —Megan Davidhizar, author of Silent Sister

“It’s hard to say what’s more terrifying, the darkness of the surrounding wilderness, or the darkness that lies inside even the most normal-seeming people.” —Ginny Myers Sain, author of Dark and Shallow Lies

“One of the best and most moving thrillers you’ll read this year. Do not miss it!” —David Bell, New York Times bestselling author of She’s Gone
