I hope if I am ever murdered, Kippy Bushman takes up the case. I also hope that I am not murdered.-- John Mulaney
Kathleen Hale somehow manages to write satire without condescension, humor without disdain and a genuine thriller without ever letting up.-- Jesse Eisenberg, Academy Award nominee for The Social Network
Teenage sleuth Kippy Bushman is back in Kathleen Hale's murderously funny sequel to No One Else Can Have You, which was named one of Time's Best Young Adult Books of the Year. Even more shocking and thrilling than its critically acclaimed predecessor, Nothing Bad Is Going to Happen is another clever, riotous dark comedy that's perfect for fans of the cult-classic film Fargo, the beloved television show Veronica Mars, and books like Sara Shepard's Pretty Little Liars series.
Just when you thought it was safe to go back to Friendship, Wisconsin...
After catching her best friend's murderer a few months ago, Kippy thought the worst was over. Then she found her boyfriend at home, barely breathing and clinging to life. The sheriff insists it was a suicide attempt, but Kippy refuses to believe it. And with everything that's happened to her, Kippy wonders if something more sinister is going on. But in a town where everyone has their secrets and a next-door neighbor could be a serial killer, who can she turn to for help?
- A Gripping YA Suspense Novel: The sheriff calls it a suicide attempt. Kippy calls it a setup. In a town this full of secrets, she's the only one willing to dig for the truth.
- Small Town Mystery: Welcome back to Friendship, Wisconsin, where the neighbors are nosy, the secrets are deadly, and the girl next door might just be a serial killer.
- Dark Humor: Experience the laugh-out-loud satire and razor-sharp wit that made John Mulaney a fan--a story where the horror is real, but the observations are hilarious.
- YA Psychological Thriller: Still recovering from her last investigation, Kippy's own trauma makes her question what's real. Is she a brilliant girl detective, or is paranoia getting the best of her?
