"The Girl Who Was Supposed to Die" by April Henry


The Girl Who Was Supposed to Die

“Take her out back and finish her off." 

This thriller, a 16-year-old girl wakes up in a cabin, not knowing who she is, where she is, or why two men are arguing about whether or not to kill her. All she knows is that there is a throbbing pain coming from two of her fingers, and that she must escape. When one of the men takes her out back to kill her, she manages to attack the man, which buys her time to run. She’s not sure where to go, so she takes the man’s SUV and drives. Along the way she meets Ty, a McDonald’s cashier, who befriends her and helps her run from the men hunting her down. When she hears about herself and her family in the news, she learns that her name is Cady Scott. She has a mom, and dad, and a 3-year-old brother – all of whom cannot be found. She travels back to Portland, Oregon with the help of Ty, only to find the man she escaped from and one of her parents'  bosses waiting for her. And they are not happy. Her parents have something these people want, and they are willing to do anything in order to get it. Killing included.

Find out how Cady (with Ty by her side) saves her family, and potentially millions of others, in this amazing book that I finished in one day. You won’t be able to put it down!
