Beautiful and confident, Mercy dazzles audiences daily. And at the\nfirst party of the summer, she picks Greta to confide in. Mercy has a secret to\nshare, if Greta will just meet her the next day. It’s a sign that Greta’s truly\nfitting in.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOnly, when the time comes, Mercy is a no-show—as she is everyday after that—and\nGreta knows something’s wrong. She can’t help thinking back to the night of the\nparty. Did Mercy seem upset? Terrified, even? Could she be in trouble? It\nwouldn’t be the first time a talented young performer came to a sinister end at\nHyper Kid. . . .\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOf course, Greta has her own issues with the past, and the more she uncovers\nHyper Kid’s secrets, the more her own threaten to surface. This job was meant\nto be a reboot, a summer without trouble. But trouble, it seems, finds Greta,\nand her past—and the bloody past of Hyper Kid—is about to catch up with her.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVeronica Bane\u003c\/b\u003e spent her formative teen years working\nat a popular theme park. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFollowing days spent as a princess and an usher, she\ngraduated from Chapman University with a BFA in Creative Writing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSince then, she’s worked as a high school English teacher in\nLincoln Heights, California. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWhen she’s not writing, she’s exploring Los Angeles with her\nhusband and their beloved dog, Bodhi. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHer debut novel, \u003ci\u003eDifficult Girls\u003c\/i\u003e, was an\ninstant \u003ci\u003eUSA Today\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TIMES DISTRIBUTION PTE LTD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45721289982159,"sku":"9780593904015","price":22.84,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/5662\/3823\/files\/download_3fcf100b-2294-4bc7-b1f4-ae8971af9925.jpg?v=1786671280","url":"https:\/\/popular.baby\/products\/difficult-girls-paperback","provider":"Popular Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
