The Fall of Iris Henley

De: Jennifer Graham

Narrado por: Eva Kaminsky

For fans of Megan Lally and Kara Thomas, a twisty thriller about a Texas teen accused of murder who's desperate to clear her name.

All it takes to ruin someone’s life is the stroke of a key. Just ask Iris Henley. Her life is destroyed when someone posts an anonymous message on her high school’s subreddit thread: “Iris Henley is a killer. I’ve been too scared to come forward until now, but I saw her murder Rocky and Lynette last summer.”

Just like that, Iris loses everything. Her reputation. Her friends. Her hope of getting into college on scholarship. Even, possibly, her freedom, once the police start to investigate. After all, she’s the perfect suspect: Rocky was her boyfriend, and Lynette was her ex-best friend—and the girl he was cheating on her with. But Iris didn’t do it, and now it’s up to her to clear her name by finding out who did—before it’s too late.

Propulsive, sharp, and absolutely twisty from the New York Times bestselling author who brought listeners the Veronica Mars duology, Jennifer Graham's YA thriller is unputdownable.

Compelling debut

Both literal and metaphorical, THE FALL OF IRIS HENLEY is a compelling debut young adult novel. Last year Iris Henley’s boyfriend killed myself and Iris’s best friend, with whom he was having an affair. As angry and hurt as Iris is, she doesn’t think Rocky could have committed the murder suicide.

THE FALL OF IRIS HENLEY zones in on many of the stressors facing teens including substance abuse, parental pressure, popularity and dating. Iris is near the top of the high school food chain. Despite knowing it, she’s relatively down to earth. Then rumors begin to swirl that she actually killed Rocky and Lynette. Rather than being supportive, her parents are angry she’s putting the family in a bad light. Her sister fans the flames, not because she thinks Iris is guilty, due to sibling rivalry.

Jennifer Graham’s debut novel shows she has what it takes to be a force in the YA genre. From character development to plot to word building, Graham hits the mark. I’ll look forward to see what she pens next.
