Reviewed by the Book Verdict editorial team

When sixteen-year-old Lydia Lee is found drowned in a lake in Ohio, the family that had built its hopes around her must confront the secrets they kept from each other and from her. Ng's debut novel is a precise study of the pressures families place on their most gifted members — and of what happens when the weight becomes too much.
