Return of Clara Hart comes a devastating heartbreak
romance with a speculative twist.
When Iris Green discovers that her boyfriend is cheating on her
with one of her best friends, she doesn’t just feel invisible
– she actually becomes invisible.
And the less she can be seen herself, the more
she understands the people around her, including Baker, the boy in
the darkroom, who might be exactly what she needs to make her way
back to herself.
A powerful novel about self-discovery in the wake of a traumatic
event
