This new novel, by Megan Kelley Hall, is a young adult novel that is scheduled for a July 28th release, according to Amazon.

A recent press release noted:

“THE LOST SISTER takes a chilling look at what happens when hazing pushes someone too far…

Sisters are born, not chosen…

Maddie Crane is grappling with the disappearance of Cordelia LeClaire, and trying to escape the grasp of The Sisters of Misery—an insidious clique of the school’s most powerful girls, whose pranks have set off a chain of horrific events, and who have Maddie in their sights…

Beware the sister betrayed…

Now in a prestigious boarding school far away from her mysterious hometown of Hawthorne , Massachusetts , Maddie feels free from danger. But when an unmarked envelope arrives at her dorm containing a single ominous tarot card, Maddie realizes with terror that some secrets won’t stay buried. Knowing she must return to Hawthorne—a town still scarred by the evil of the Salem witch trials—Maddie prepares to face the fears of her past...and the wrath of the sister she wronged.”

This is a follow up to the author’s earlier work, Sisters of Mercy. Readers should find more info on Amazon. Kensington is the publisher.
