Set in Milwaukee during the “Dahmer summer” of 1991, A remarkable debut novel for fans of Mary Gaitskill and Gillian Flynn about two sisters—one who disappears, and one who is left to pick up the pieces in the aftermath.

In the summer of 1991, a teenage girl named Dee McBride vanished in the city of Milwaukee. Nearly thirty years later, her sister, Peg, is still haunted by her sister's disappearance. Their mother, on her deathbed, is desperate to find out what happened to Dee so the  family hires a psychic to help find Dee’s body and bring them some semblance of peace. 

The appearance of the psychic plunges Peg back to the past, to those final carefree months when she last saw Dee—the summer the Journal Sentinel called “the deadliest . . . in the history of Milwaukee.” Serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer’s heinous crimes dominated the headlines and overwhelmed local law enforcement. The disappearance of one girl was easily overlooked.

Peg’s hazy recollections are far from easy for her to interpret, assess, or even keep clear in her mind. And now digging deep into her memory raises doubts and difficult—even terrifying—questions. Was there anything Peg could have done to prevent Dee’s disappearance? Who was really to blame for the family's loss? How often are our memories altered by the very act of voicing them? And what does it mean to bear witness in a world where even our own stories are inherently suspect?

A heartbreaking page-turner, Willa C. Richards’ debut novel is the story of a broken family looking for answers in the face of the unknown, and asks us to reconsider the power and truth of memory.

Matte comfortable facial sunscreen
This is a great sunscreen! The texture is kind of odd at first but it dries down nicely and is the only facial sunscreen I have found that is NOT shiny or greasy looking! Most facial sunscreens will advertise no white cast and being "dewy," but I find them to make my face so shiny and greasy looking, especially because I also use a moisturizer. This one is great and does not add any shine to my face.

clear and light sunscreen
Used this sunscreen and it works really well. It goes on clear and spreads easily. Not sticky or oily at all, very comfortable on the skin. Feels light and good for daily use.

Matte and definitely worth purchasing
Love it. It’s definitely matte, but doesn’t dry me out. I put it on with a light moisturizer, and have no issues with pilling. It feels more like a light oil when applying, but that feeling goes away in seconds. I like that it’s also water resistant. I get oily really easily, so I’ve been looking for an affordable matte sunscreen, and this seems to be working really well for me. There’s a sunscreen smell on application, but it’s not too overwhelming and goes away quickly. Overall, 10/10 would definitely recommend, and kinda wish I could gatekeep it.

Best sunscreen ever
Best sunscreen! Extremely smooth, it leaves your skin completely matte. It does not feel like sunscreen, it feels like a high end primer. It’s a gel not even a cream. I use it as my primer, since I have to put sunscreen on anyway, it serves as my primer before make up. I’ve always struggled with finding a decent sunscreen for my face that leaves no cast or hurts my eyes but this one is the best one I’ve ever tried. Matte, smooth, gel, does not hurt eyes, primer for make up. Amazing! And great value for the money.

Feels very oily right after applying
Ok, NON SPONSORED review. I bought this with my own money. It’s a great sunscreen, very lightweight and goes on clear. The only downside is, right after applying it feels like straight cooking oil on your skin. It’s a horrible, horrible sensory experience. But once you give it a couple minutes to dry down, it’s completely matte and feels like nothing. It hasn’t broken me out yet like other sunscreens I’ve tried, so that’s a plus.
