Everyone knows Emma. Neesha’s her best friend, Aiden’s her basketball star boyfriend, and Evan’s her shadow, following Emma’s every move.

Emma stands out, which is hard to do at Redemption Prep, a school where every student has been handpicked to attend its remote campus in the forest of Utah. So when she goes missing in plain sight during mass, everyone notices.

And everyone becomes a suspect, especially at a school with so many rules: Don’t skip mass. Don’t break curfew. Don’t go into the woods.

Emma’s disappearance ignites an investigation, and Neesha, Aiden, and Evan all want to find her—for different reasons. But they each have their own secrets to hide, and not everyone wants Emma to be found.
As the search continues, the students start to realize that they’re not the only ones trying to hide something. Redemption Prep has secrets, too—secrets bigger than any of the students could have imagined, and Emma could be the key to finding out the truth . . . if anyone can find her.

Short and Sweet Review

Redemption Prep is an elite prep school in the forest of Utah. Everyone knows who Emma is, so when she goes missing everyone notices. Neesha is her best friend, Aiden is her boyfriend, and Evan is her shadow. Each of them wants to find Emma but for different reasons.

We get three different point of views Neesha’s, Aiden’s and Evan’s, I didn’t like one more than the other, I feel like each of them had their own motives for finding Emma. Neesha was selling a drug named Apex with the help of Emma, and Aiden is obviously trying to find his girlfriend, and Evan is kind of like a stalker. Even though Evan has never talked to Emma he did have good intentions.

The book is a fast read its paced quickly. I liked the whole mystery aspect of the book, it was interesting to see how each student went about trying to find Emma and how they also learned that redemption prep was not what they thought it was. I did like how in the end the students teamed up for the greater good. I was really excited to read this book but I felt like the ending was rushed and I was still left a little confused about the motive of the school. Overall this book was okay but it didn’t wow me like I thought it would and the whole thing about Emma going missing ended up being a disappointment.
