GLASS HALF BROKEN
A novel by Rachel Richards
When the people Annie loves mysteriously vanish one by one, how will she uncover the answer that lies trapped inside her own deceptive mind?
Annie knows there's something wrong with her. A child genius with crippling social anxiety and a compulsion for tearing at her wrist, Annie struggles to please her reputation-obsessed mother. Annie's dad is the only one who understands her. But when he runs off on a spiritual quest during a manic episode, Annie blames herself.
As she matures, Annie's grief is reignited each time someone she cares about mysteriously disappears without a trace. Suspecting she's gone insane, Annie learns she can't trust anyone, least of all herself. When she finally discovers the shocking truth, Annie's next move could mean the difference between life and death.
