The Only Survivors: A Novel - by Megan Miranda (Hardcover)

Only @ Target, this edition features an exclusive epilogue!!!

Ten years ago two vans of North Carolina high school seniors en route to a volunteer trip careened off a mountain road into a river in Tennessee. Only nine of them made it home.

On the first anniversary of the accident, another survivor committed suicide. That's when the remaining survivors made a pact: to meet up every year to mark the date, so that none of the survivors will be alone.

But on the tenth anniversary, Cassidy, who has always felt like the outsider of the group, decides not to attend, believing the pact is keeping her from moving forward with her life. But on the first day of the planned reunion, a text comes in from an unknown number, with a link to an obituary: Another member of their group had overdosed, three months earlier.

Cassidy leaves for the Outer Banks immediately, telling her boyfriend she has a last-minute business trip. When she arrives, she immediately senses that something is off. There’s a new tension in the group, whispers of a tell-all account of their accident—and then one of the other survivors abruptly disappears. Then a phone washes up on the beach with evidence that something much more sinister might be in play. Cassidy realizes that something stronger than survivors’ guilt has drawn them together, year after year. And that their pact has been less a promise than an ultimatum, all along.
