You Were Never Here by Kathleen Peacock


 Mary Catherine, Cat, hasn't been to Montgomery Falls, Canada, since she was 12 years old.  She is now 17 and her dad has sent her to stay with her aunt for the summer.  She had something happen in New York that he wants her away from.  As she arrives in town, she finds out her former friend Riley has gone missing.  He was the one friend who knew what she could do, which is when she touches someone she can see their fears or desire.  He helped her that summer figure out what was going on, but once they kissed, he never talked to her again.  As Cat stays with her Aunt, she becomes friends with some local teenagers, but Riley's brother, Noah, ropes her into helping him investigate what happened to Riley.  Rachel, a local teen, is found unconscious by the river and somehow Cat knows it is all tied together.  The more she digs into things, the more she becomes a target.

Would probably recommend this for 8th and up for language, violence, stalking, and murder.  I liked the book, but it wasn't a can't put it down until towards the end kind of book.
