Daughter of Deep Silence - Hardcover

"There's a Gone Girl quality to [Daughter of Deep Silence] . . . Frances'/Libby's careful research, plotting, and design...are reminiscent of Amy Dunne's craftiness. The sweet love stories that haunt these complex teenagers, however, are theirs alone, a subset of a multilayered story of assumed identity, revenge, and possible, if uncertain, happy endings." --Booklist "Daughter of Deep Silence is a perilous thriller, taut and brilliantly paced...It's an intriguing blend of subterfuge and brutal possibilities." --Romantic Times, Top Pick "This romantic revenge thriller will keep readers turning pages in a state of breathless suspense." --Kirkus Reviews "[Carrie Ryan] delivers a suspenseful thriller dealing with themes of identity, love, loss, and getting even." --School Library Journal "Daughter of Deep Silence is a trademark Carrie Ryan novel--heart-stopping suspense, fine writing, and a heroine who finds and owns her true strength. I couldn't put it down!"--Ally Condie, bestselling author of the Matched series and Atlantia "A glamorous and compelling tale of deceit and revenge. A must-read from one of my favorite authors and a master of the genre!"--Melissa de la Cruz, bestselling author of the Heart of Dread and Blue Bloods series "Unexpected twists and a jaw-dropping ending kept me reading all night."--Kami Garcia, bestselling author of the Beautiful Creatures novels and Unmarked

In the wake of the complete destruction of the luxury yacht Persephone, three people are left alive who know the truth about what happened and two of them are lying. Only Frances Mace, rescued from the ocean after seven days adrift with her friend Libby (who died of thirst just before rescue), knows that the Persephone wasn't sunk by a rogue wave as survivors Senator Wells and his son Greyson are claiming it was attacked. In order to insure her safety from the obviously dangerous and very powerful Wells family, Libby's father helps Frances assume Libby's identity. Frances has spent years in hiding, transforming herself into Libby, and she can no longer allow the people who murdered her entire family and Libby to get away with it even if she had been in love with Greyson Wells. After years of careful plotting, she's ready to set her revenge plans into motion. The game has just begun, and Frances is not only playing dirty, she's playing to win.
