The Isa Project (signed paperback)
What happens when your second chance at happiness forces repressed memories to the surface?
K Statham was a bookish introvert determined to shake her anonymous “new girl” status when she joined the drama club. In the theatre, she discovered not only her buried artistic side, but her ride-or-die best friends. A trio of misfits was born: K, the ethereal flower child Isa DeLuca, and her brother, Lincoln.
But after four years of both the best and most painful kind of chaos, the friends find themselves scattered. It’s not until an unexpected phone call in her freshman year of college that K is reacquainted with the DeLucas—and shipwrecked by grief.
Isa is dead.
Resolved to compartmentalize her trauma and make it to the other side of graduation, K stores her shame in a filing cabinet in the back of her mind.
Until… Enter Lincoln DeLuca.
Isa’s brother transferring to K’s university only means one thing: It’s time to dig up the past. This could be the second chance K has longed for, but only if she’s ready to figure out what really happened to Isa.
The mental health rep of Perks of Being a Wallflower meets the sweet romance Eleanor & Park in this coming-of-age mystery. The Isa Project examines the complexity of friendship and how art-making can heal even the deepest of wounds.
