Pretend She’s Here

Plot

Emily Lonergan’s best friend died last year. And Emily hasn’t stopped grieving. Lizzie Potter was lively, loud, and fun-Emily’s better half. Emily can’t accept that she’s gone. When Lizzie’s parents and her sister come back to town to visit, Emily is heartened to see them. The Porters understand her pain. They miss Lizzie desperately, too.
Desperately enough to do something crazy.
Something unthinkable.
Suddenly, Emily’s life is hurtling toward a very dark place-and she’s not sure she’ll ever be able to return to what she once knew was real.
