ABOUT

A gripping psychological suspense novel about the dangerous consequences of sharing someone else’s story in the next installment in bestselling author Caroline B. Cooney’s iconic JANIE series.

The kidnapping is long past but for Janie Johnson, life will never truly go back to normal. Caught between the family who raised her and the family she was stolen from, Janie is still struggling to figure out where she belongs. The one thing keeping her grounded is her relationship with Reeve, the boyfriend who stood beside her through everything.

But Reeve is away at college, navigating a world that feels harder than either of them expected. When Reeve lands a late-night spot at the campus radio station, he discovers the perfect story to captivate listeners: Janie’s. Reeve is so sure that Janie will never find out what's making his broadcast such a hit that he doesn't stop himself. What will be the price for Janie?

Continue the unforgettable JANIE series from bestselling author Caroline B. Cooney.

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
