AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. But maybe that’s because a book doesn’t get to choose its own cover. A person does get to choose what they look like. It says something about them, just like any other action they might do. And why would anybody act like a tool unless that’s exactly what they are?

'WHEN Lindsay meets Elias, the signs aren’t promising. She’s a grungy introvert who doesn’t want to talk to anyone. He’s a teen fashionista who can’t shut the hell up. But since Lindsay tracked down a young runaway, word has got around that she knows how to find people. Elias is looking for his birth mother and he thinks Lindsay can help.

'The thing is, Lindsay wasn’t actually trying to find anyone. It’s just how she looks at the world. Scanning every house, every face, every car. That’s because someone is missing in Lindsay’s life: her identical twin, Frankie, who disappeared when they were seven. Since then, her parents have kept themselves busy. And angry. And Lindsay has been...looking.

'In Elias, despite their differences, she might have found someone to look with.'
