• Did her loony parents finally push her over the edge?
• Or is Raleigh’s hunch dead-on: Drew didn’t choose to leave….

The first book in the best-selling Raleigh Harmon mystery series, Stone and Spark introduces the girl who will grow up to become a forensic geologist and FBI agent—provided she survives her high school years.

The harder Raleigh tries to show Drew the truth, the more she herself questions the facts, and the people she once trusted.

Christmas swirls in like a snowstorm, and Drew spirals downward, burying Raleigh under mountains of evidence about Sloane’s suicide,. It threatens to destroy everything, including Raleigh’s new relationship with her boyfriend.

Desperate to put the pieces back together, Raleigh digs for answers, trying to uncover what really happened on that cold, silent night when Sloane Stillman lost her life.

This was no accident . . . or was it?

Raleigh Harmon has just won a coveted science contest, and the chance to compete for a $50,000 college scholarship. Great news, right?

Only her goofy aunt drives her to the contest in North Carolina, and as soon as they arrive, Raleigh realizes she’s way out of her league. The competitors are ruthless brainiacs. And she has no idea how to win this contest.

That suddenly changes when one of the competitors almost dies—and Raleigh looks like a prime suspect. With forty-eight hours to solve the science riddle, can she also pick out the bad guy—or girl—before they escape the island? And what if the bad guy is the boy Raleigh really likes?
