****************************************************************
       為了遲到五年的正義，她誓言不惜一切代價⋯⋯
       在調查過程中，她是否可以持續當個好女孩，
       不讓真相傷害到任何人，也避免踏入死亡陷阱？
****************************************************************
五年前，十七歲少女安蒂無端失蹤，警方斷定安蒂的男友沙爾是殺人凶手，這位唯一凶嫌卻在數天後被人發現自殺身亡，警方也草草結案。根據統計，在所有失蹤案當中，只有1%不曾找到失蹤者，0.25%的失蹤者尋獲時已經死亡。線索看似齊全，五年來卻毫無新進展的這樁離奇失蹤案裡，安蒂究竟是1%的「下落不明」？還是0.25%的「已經死亡」？

五年後，少女小琵為了寫學校報告，大膽重提整座小鎮都避而不談的安蒂案，更打算為死去的沙爾平反。根據失蹤案當晚的一場聚會，小琵在臉書貼文、通聯紀錄中推敲出，當天晚上說謊的竟不止一個人，安蒂生前不為人知的祕密更一一暴露而出。她不僅霸凌同學，交友複雜，手中更常有來路不明的大筆現金⋯⋯難道，當年的校園人氣女孩安蒂，其實是遭到「制裁」？如果安蒂是「壞人」，還需要為她伸張正義嗎？

隨著蒐集到手的日記、對話紀錄、關係人訪談，小琵手中的嫌疑犯名單愈來愈長，也逐步接近校園人際關係和小鎮生活最黑暗的一面。她開始意識到，她的調查結果可能會傷害到還活著的人⋯⋯更重要的是，在收到一張又一張威脅紙條之後，她開始擔憂，自己有辦法活到親手揭露真凶的那一刻嗎？

　　Review
　　A taut, compulsively readable, elegantly plotted thriller (Guardian)

　　There is a lot to really enjoy in this story and there is great energy to the writing, as well as some fine characterization. (Peter James, award-winning and no.1 bestselling crime thriller author of Detective Superintendent Roy Grace series)

　　Prepare to be murdered by this book. Dark, dangerous and intricately plotted – my heart literally pounded. I haven't been this addicted to anything since Serial. Holly Jackson is the next big thing, I promise. (Laura Steven, author of the critically acclaimed The Exact Opposite of Okay)

　　Twisty, compulsive and so, so, clever (Savannah Brown, author of The Truth About Keeping Secrets)

　　This book was a delight from start to finish. I laughed. I cried. And I very much enjoyed attempting to solve the case with Pip (who I now want to be my best friend). I didn't guess the twist, and I don't think many people will. Holly Jackson has absolutely killed it with her debut! (Aisha Bushby, author of A Pocketful of Stars and contributor to the award-winning A Change is Gonna Come)

　　That ending! Pure genius (Yasmin Rahman, author of All the Things We Never Said)

　　In a League of its Own (Lucy Powrie, author of The Paper & Hearts Society)

　　A Twisty, compelling UK YA debut (Fiona Noble, The Bookseller)
