The Walls Around Us Tapa blanda - 2016

On the outside, there's Violet, a dancer days away from the life of her dreams when something threatens to expose the shocking truth of her achievement.

On the inside, within the walls of Aurora Hills juvenile detention center, there's Amber, imprisoned for so long she can't imagine freedom.

Tying their two worlds together is Orianna, who holds the key to unlocking all the girls' darkest mysteries . . . The Walls Around Us is a ghostly story of suspense told in two voices--one still living and one long dead.

"Unputdownable . . . The well-paced plot reveals guilt, innocence, and dark truths that will not stay hidden." --The Boston Globe

"With evocative language, a shifting timeline and more than one unreliable narrator, Suma subtly explores the balance of power between the talented and the mediocre, the rich and the poor, the brave and the cowardly . . . To reveal more would be to uncover the bloody heart that beats beneath the floorboards of this urban-legend-tinged tale." --The New York Times

"A suspenseful tour de force, a ghost story of the best sort, the kind that creeps into your soul and haunts you." --Libba Bray, author of The Diviners and A Great and Terrible Beauty
"A gorgeously written, spellbinding ghost story." --Chicago Tribune
