Synopsis

“A groundbreaking, nail-biting and wondrous legal thriller.” — BestThrillers.com

“Emily is a brilliant character, the perfect balance of admirable and flawed.” — IndieReader

Emily Calby disappeared at age twelve, the only survivor of a notorious home invasion. Three years later, she’s safe and content, living in anonymity with her mentor and protector, ex-gang member Lucas Jackson—until life blows up again on her sixteenth birthday. The ‘missing Calby girl’ is discovered, and worse: she’s wanted for murder in another state.

Extradited to a corrupt juvenile prison, Emily learns a new code of survival while battling a vindictive prosecutor bent on destroying her. Thwarted by the law at every turn, she discovers a forgotten prison library and buries herself in the books.

As she fights for her life in court, the dark secrets behind the prison walls close in. Her cellmate is in grave danger. So is her first crush, a gentle boy sentenced to life without parole. Emily’s desperate to protect them, but how can she when her explosive trial brings a new disaster every day?

A gripping blend of legal suspense, psychological tension, and raw emotion, The Girl in Cell 49B is the powerful standalone sequel to The Hiding Girl.
