Praise for Useless Bay

A taut, suspenseful page-turner... Call it magical realism, horror division.
Kirkus

A dark and earthy thriller with a touch of romance.
School Library Journal

**STARRED REVIEW** "Short in length but long on atmosphere, it’s a gripping mystery with a supernatural overlay that makes its setting all the more haunting."
Publishers Weekly

Useless Bay combines the perfect proportions of mystery and mysticism in this absorbing missing-person story... a perfect read for middle through high schoolers when the wind is howling outside and the rain is pounding against the windows.
