"Cults and childhood trauma lead to real suspense...Fans of Freida McFadden and Jeneva Rose

To Entertain returns with an electrifying novel of psychological suspense that explores the way
our pasts shape our futures in so many unexpected ways. Stella O'Neill is just your average
millennial working at a public library and worrying about making rent. No one would suspect
she's been living under an assumed name or that she was raised in a Vermont commune of
"diviners" where and as a ten-year-old she witnessed her mother’s brutal murder—a crime that
has gone unsolved for years. But her quiet anonymous existence is upended when a true-crime
obsessive posts her current name and location on the internet. Now Stella has to get out of
Boston before her mother’s killer can find her and finish the job he started all those years
ago. Fed up with living in fear she heads to the off-the-grid retreat of her childhood to
confront her mother’s unhinged guru who controlled their lives for so long--the infamous
Radcliffe MacBeath. Stella has two powerful assets: determination and a supernatural gift.
Relying on her mother’s beloved rose quartz pendulum Stella will have to outwit the
charismatic leader who’s ruined so many lives and discover once and for all the true identity
of her mother's killer—before becoming his next victim.
