The Butterfly Sister: A Novel
“A dark mystery that also works on your heart, The Butterfly Sister is a beguiling, terrifying story and Amy Gail Hansen a true find.” —Jacquelyn Mitchard, #1 New York Times–bestselling author

Ten months after dropping out of all-girl Tarble College, Ruby Rousseau is still haunted by the memories of her senior year, a time marred by an affair with her English professor and a deep depression that caused her to question her sanity.

When a mysterious suitcase arrives bearing Ruby’s name and address, she tries to return it to its rightful owner, Beth—a dormmate at Tarble—only to learn that Beth disappeared two days earlier.

With clues found in the luggage, including a tattered copy of Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own, which Ruby believes instigated her madness, she sets out to uncover the truth.

“I LOVED IT. It is the perfect beach read—girls who like dishy romantic thrillers are going to go nuts for it this summer. I myself couldn’t put it down until I was done.” —Meg Cabot, New York Times–bestselling author

“Hansen’s debut cleverly entwines these literary ghosts into a suspenseful and swiftly paced light mystery.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Hansen’s heroine, Ruby, proves to be a smart, complex, and very engaging character. An agreeable mix of suspense and literary fiction.” —Booklist

“Hansen’s first novel is heartfelt, suspenseful and very, very satisfying!” —Nancy Woodruff, author of My Wife’s Affair
