Nothing is as important to sixteen-year-old Shiloh Oleson as her little brother Max. So when the six-year-old goes missing without a trace, a heartbroken Shiloh refuses to believe nothing can be done and sets out to find him.

When one of Shiloh’s classmates says she knows where Max is, Shiloh hesitates to believe her. Francesca is creepy. She says she can see ghosts, but everyone knows ghosts aren’t real … right?

But Francesca says that Max is going to be murdered.

And a ghost told her where he is.

As the line between the dead and living begins to blur, Shiloh starts to think Francesca might not be as crazy as she believed. One thing is becoming clear. Someone has gruesome plans for Max, and Shiloh must confront her worst nightmares to find him before it’s too late.

THEY STAY is the first book in the They Stay Series, a thrilling supernatural adventure for young adults.

CONTENT WARNINGS: This book contains physical and mental abuse, death, violence, kidnapping, gun violence, alcohol abuse, references to suicide, implied sexual abuse (non-graphic), bullying, and mild adult language.


Please be aware this story is a mature young adult book that covers sensitive topics such as suicide, abuse and bullying.  They Stay follow the story of Shiloh, a young girl whose brother has been kidnapped,  and Francesca, a unique character. The story goes into multi-perspective stories that any reader can follow along. When reading the story, one can connect with the characters personally as their life have not been easy. Shiloh comes from a broken home. Her father is abusive and worse, he is a policeman. As her younger brother Max get kidnapped, she embarks a twisted and supernatural journey that will connect her with strange characters, including Francesca.

They Stay is slow-paced story covering difficult stories of small-town individuals with a touch of supernatural world. I like the unique mystery but overall the way one can connect with the characters. It kind of gave me the Stranger Things vibes with couple of kids hanging out together while uncovering the truth of their town. Although Halloween is over, They Stay is a nice read to pick up during these chilly days.
