About this ebook
Back in September, the town of Bakersville, Ohio made national news when a video went viral featuring thirteen of the high school’s elite in compromising positions. Now it’s May, and every month since the “Bakersville Dozen” made their infamous appearance on the national stage, one girl has gone missing. Officials are no closer to identifying the criminal.
Bailey, “Like a Virgin” Holzman is getting really fed up with the scrutiny. She just wants to enjoy the rest of her senior year, and have an epic summer before heading off to college. So when she discovers a note in her locker on the last day of school inviting her on a scavenger hunt, she thinks it’s just a sweet surprise from her boyfriend trying to cheer her up.
But following the clue leads her, instead, to the first official casualty. And another sinister envelope. The killer is close, and it could be anyone. Even the people Bailey’s always trusted most—her best friend, her perfect boyfriend, or the boy-next door she’s always pined for.
With the clock ticking, she faces a terrifying choice: play the game by the killer’s rules—follow the clues, tell no one, and no cops—for a chance to save the rest of the missing girls, or risk becoming the next grisly victim.
The latest heart-pounding thriller from Kristina McBride blends elements of Gone Girl, Pretty Little Liars, and Stephen King into a story that will leave you guessing until the final pages.

Reviews for The Bakersville Dozen
8 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An excellent example of a teen Thriller! #GoodreadsGiveaway
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/53.75 stars A list goes out at a high school in Ohio with 13 of the popular girls listed with suggestive names attached such as ; Becca Hillyer- hot for teacher. These 13 girls are considered the Bakersville Dozen but the list turns sinister when 5 of the 13 girls end up missing. The search for the girls turns into a scavenger hunt and they are cautioned not to get police involved as there would be severe consequences. I felt like the story had some flaws (the biggest for me was that at times it felt so far-fetched that it was hard to really connect with the story) there were times I rolled my eyes because the choices the characters made were so stupid that it warranted an eye roll . For the most part though i felt the story was fast paced and had my attention. Overall If you enjoy ya thrillers i think this is definitely one to check out. I didn’t see the ending coming (which for ya in my opinion is rare)Thanks to Sky Pony Press for a complimentary copy to read, review, and share my honest thoughts and opinions.
