Stay Dead by April Henry (Mystery and Survival)
Stay Dead by April Henry
Milan's life feels like it spiraling out of control. She and her father were in a car accident 8 months ago, and he was killed, and she was left with a leg that was severally broken - and has pins in it. But after her father's death, her mom decided to send her off to a boarding school - because her mom took over her father's US Senate seat. Milan feels abandoned, and appears to be acting out (she isn't sure herself) because she has just gotten kicked out of her third boarding school. Not a great look for a Senator's daughter. So when her mom comes to pick her up from the latest school, Milan is hoping to have some time with her. But before she can make amends with her mom, their plane crashes and some deadly secrets are revealed.
Recommended for grades 8 and up.
