From the back cover

Three years ago, Chloe and her younger sister Mia were kidnapped. Forced to draw from a blind box, Mia pulled the black ball and begged Chloe to die in her place. Chloe offered herself instead, and both sisters survived once their parents paid the ransom. Since then, Chloe has been treated as the golden child, given the best room, the best school and control of the family finances, while Mia was expected to defer to her at every turn.

When their parents buy blind-box style New Year's gifts and let Chloe choose first, Mia plays a recording from the kidnapping in which Chloe's voice declares, "Let her die." Her mother slaps her; her father drags her into the basement and locks the door. In the dark, Chloe smells gas leaking from a damaged valve. The recording was real, but the words were Mia's, spoken in terror three years ago. Trapped, unheard, Chloe stops fighting and lets the darkness take her.

Inside the book Opening excerpt

On the seventh day of our kidnapping, the captor made my sister and me draw from a blind box.

Draw a red ball, you live. Draw a black ball, you die.

My sister pulled a black ball and broke down sobbing.

Without a moment's hesitation, I told the kidnapper, "I'll trade with her."
