Uncanny by Sarah Fine

Uncanny by Sarah Fine

“A dark and twisty psychological thriller that straddles the question of what it means to be human.” —Kirkus Reviews

Two sisters. One death. No memories.

Cora should remember every detail about the night her stepsister, Hannah, fell down a flight of stairs to her death, especially since her Cerepin—a sophisticated brain-computer interface—may have recorded each horrifying moment. But when she awakens after that night, her memories gone, Cora is left with only questions—and dread of what the answers might mean.

When a downward spiral of self-destruction forces Cora to work with an AI counselor, she finds an unexpected ally, even as others around her grow increasingly convinced that Hannah’s death was no accident. As Cora’s dark past swirls chaotically with the versions of Hannah’s life and death that her family and friends want to believe, Cora discovers the disturbing depths of what some people may do—including herself.

With her very sanity in question, Cora is forced to face her greatest fear. She will live or die by what she discovers.

“In the midst of mystery and anticipation, prepare to be transported to Fine’s well-developed and sensory-appealing future, while contemplating the likelihood of forthcoming technological advances…While the truth may eventually be revealed, justice refuses to be easily served” —The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books (starred review)

“Readers will be hooked by the mystery…A dark and twisty psychological thriller that straddles the question of what it means to be human.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Fine manages to inject new, captivating sci-fi elements into her own story.” —Booklist

“Uncanny promises a look at the dark depths of human nature…With a satisfying twist ending and a faster-paced second half, this book is a good choice for…fans of books such as E. Lockhart’s We Were Liars.” —VOYA

“Uncanny is surprisingly insightful as the author delves into the complicated minefield of high school friendships and blended families. Intriguing from the start, the plot hurtles to a conclusion that is unexpectedly disturbing. Uncanny is an uncomfortably fascinating read that examines what actions someone is willing to take when emotions overtake reason.” —Fictionist Magazine

“This book is really intriguing.” —Eclectic Bookworms

“…Quite the page-turner at the end as it became an intense murder mystery thriller, with some very shocking twists.” —Post-Apocalyptic Playground
