Playing in Traffic by Gail Giles
I was the ghost of school corridors.Skye was the devil.And I was doomed from the day she spoke to me.Skye Colby? She's the multi-pierced, multi-tattooed girl hanging around the cybercafs; always out at odd hours in marginal places. The testosterone-fueled jocks call her slut puppy; the bland blondes in the plaid skirts wrinkle their snub noses in distaste; the teachers call her brilliant - and the counselors call her unstable.She is all that. So why has she singled out Matt Lathrop, an almost invisible nobody, for special attention? Clearly, she has a dangerous agenda, but how can Matt resist the mystery and drama Skye trails in her Goth wake? She promises a way out of his dreary existence - but at what price?This gripping page-turner will propel you from one surprising revelation to the next - right to the shocking ending. The newest psychological thriller from Gail Giles, who was called a writer to watch by Kirkus Reviews.
