All the Things We Do in the Dark
By Saundra Mitchell
Sadie meets Girl in Pieces in this dark, emotional thriller by acclaimed author Saundra Mitchell.
Something happened to Ava. The curving scar on her face is proof. Ava would rather keep that something hidden—buried deep in her heart and her soul.
But in the woods on the outskirts of town, the traces of someone else’s secrets lie frozen, awaiting Ava’s discovery—and what Ava finds threatens to topple the carefully constructed wall of normalcy that she’s spent years building around her.
Secrets leave scars. But when the secret in question is not your own—do you ignore the truth and walk away? Or do you uncover it from its shallow grave and let it reopen old wounds—wounds that have finally begun to heal?

- A Survivor’s Story: Haunted by the scar on her face and the trauma she keeps buried, Ava must confront her own past to solve a crime in the present.
- An Unlikely LGBTQ Romance: In the midst of the chaos, a new relationship with a girl named Hailey offers a spark of light—but secrets have a way of poisoning everything.
- A Raw Psychological Thriller: Perfect for fans of dark contemporary YA who love gripping mysteries, complex characters, and stories that explore the tangled roots of grief.
