When a night of babysitting turns fatal, a girl burdened
with survivor's guilt becomes increasingly convinced that someone is
responsible for the gas leak that killed her family member – and that she was
the intended target all along.
Ella wishes that she could do something more fun on New
Year’s Eve than babysit, but lately her life has taken a scary turn with a
diagnosis that she is trying her best to ignore. So after she barely recovers
from another paralyzing migraine, Ella arrives late to her aunt’s house for
babysitting.
But when nobody answers the door, she knows something isn’t
right. Breaking in, she finds her cousins unconscious on the floor. And Aunt
Julie is dead. Ella is barely able to rescue them from the house before she
collapses into the snow.
When investigators discover that the cause of death was from
a gas leak, a small voice in the back of her head keeps reminding Ella that it
could have been her – not Aunt Julie – inside that house. Ella is determined to
find out what really happened to her aunt, but her family is so sure it was an
accident. After all, Ella’s paranoia must just be a side effect of her
diagnosis – a diagnosis that makes everyone tiptoe around her.
As deadly lies begin to seep through the cracks of the
investigation, Ella gets the feeling that the gas leak might not have been an
accident – and that someone might be out to kill her next.
With incredible twists, an unputdownable story, and a
fantastic concept, Gaslit is an extraordinary YA thriller that will keep you
guessing until the very last page.
