What Happened to Cass McBride? By Gail Giles
Kyle blames Cass for his brother’s suicide. Cass is that pretty girl at school who’s popular but thoughtless and sometimes mean. Cass doesn’t realize how deeply words can hurt other people, but Kyle knows, and he wants revenge. So he built a box for Cass, dropped her drugged body in it, and buried her. Buried her alive. And yet that’s not enough for Kyle. Kyle wants Cass to understand what she did, so he puts a walkie talkie in the box with her so he can explain it. Now she’ll have to use her words to save herself, but can she? In time?  Prepare yourself for a pyschological thriller.
