A game for the soul

New York, 2011. A fifteen-year-old girl is found crucified in the suburbs, and investigative journalist Miren Triggs unexpectedly receives a strange envelope. Inside is a Polaroid photo of another teenage girl, bound and gagged. Beneath the picture, a simple caption reads, “GINA PEBBLES, 2002.”
Miren Triggs and her former university professor, Jim Schmoer, begin to trace the girl from the Polaroid while also investigating the crucifixion. Their search leads them to a religious school, an institution that harbours many secrets.
To solve the greatest mystery, they must answer three seemingly impossible questions: What happened to Gina? Who sent the Polaroid? And most importantly, are the two cases connected?
After selling more than a million copies of his books, Javier Castillo presents readers with an unsettling thriller that pulls them into a game of trust and deception, love and pain, strange rituals, and a dark secret that could turn everything upside down if revealed.
