- Synopsis
- They Wish They Were Us meets The Queen&’s Gambit in this &“stunning…unforgettable&” (Publishers Weekly) thriller set in the world of competitive Scrabble, where a teen girl is forced to investigate the mysterious death of her best friend when her Instagram comes back to life with cryptic posts and messages.CATALYST 13 points noun: a substance that speeds up a reaction without itself changing When Najwa Bakri walks into her first Scrabble competition since her best friend&’s death, it&’s with the intention to heal and move on with her life. Perhaps it wasn&’t the best idea to choose the very same competition where said best friend, Trina Low, died. It seems that even though Najwa is trying to change, she&’s not ready to give up Trina just yet. But the same can&’t be said for all the other competitors. With Trina, the Scrabble Queen herself, gone, the throne is empty, and her friends are eager to be the next reigning champion. All&’s fair in love and Scrabble, but all bets are off when Trina&’s formerly inactive Instagram starts posting again, with cryptic messages suggesting that maybe Trina&’s death wasn&’t as straightforward as everyone thought. And maybe someone at the competition had something to do with it. As secrets are revealed and the true colors of her friends are shown, it&’s up to Najwa to find out who&’s behind these mysterious posts—not just to save Trina&’s memory, but to save herself.
