Publisher's summary

The facts:

Julian Roman, age 16, is an escapee from a juvenile detention facility.

His parents, Michael Roman and Jennifer Roman, are dead.

Julian is wanted for murder.

The questions:

Why is Julian Roman on the run?

Just how dangerous is he?

And who did kill Michael and Jennifer Roman, if not Julian?

Sixteen-year-old Day Connor views life through the lens of her camera, where perspective is everything. But photographs never tell the whole story. After Day crosses paths with Julian, the world she pictures and the truths she believes - neatly captured in black and white - begins to blur.

Julian is not the "armed and dangerous" escapee the police are searching for, but his alibis don't quite add up, either. There is more to his story. This time, Day is determined to see the entire picture...whatever it reveals. Did he? Or didn't he?

Day digs deeper into the case while Julian remains on the run. But the longer her list of facts becomes, the longer the list of questions becomes, too. It's also getting harder to deny the chemistry she feels for him. Is it real? Or is she being manipulated? Day is close to finding the crack in the case. She just needs time to focus before the shutter snaps shut.

For tweens!

So, the title and the cover threw me off and I thought I was going to be reading a scary mystery type book. It’s not, and you really need to be a kid to enjoy. From a teen outlook it’s not so bad, way better than some YA books I’ve accidentally downloaded. The narration is fine except the horrible voice for the mom, it’s horrid.

alluring performance

the story was shorter than expected but leaves room for follow-up stories. I do feel that it was rushed to end.

soothing and understanding

The story was good and I enjoyed the voice of the narrator. She was calm and expressive but never annoying. I have listened to over 75 books, but this was my favorite narrator.

great story

loved the story, Bailey Carr is phenomenal always, she's the only reason i was drawn to this book to start with. i liked the story, always kept me guessing. i would have loved this to be part of a series though. the ending is a little lack luster to me. just seems to come to such a sudden end and i really just want more. which isn't all bad. just means the writing was captivating. the narrators almost had me crying a couple of times. i recommend

Ok to listen to

It was a good story but lacked something, to me anyway. It was worth listening to for an easy listen.

Story was great but!

How do you end a book like this, especially when the whole story is being told around to young people. There’s absolutely no closure in this book, but the message was pretty clear in this book though:
don’t judge a book by its cover,
and
look at all the facts before you judge.
This book was geared towards young adults and it was perfectly fitting for those readers, just don’t expect any closure with the main characters of the story

Really!!

I liked the book. The story was good even though the main characters were teens. I did not like how the ending was left open for questions.
