Meet Deanna R. Adams for the launch of her new book, The Kryptonite Club.

About the book:

After a school shooting shatters an affluent Ohio suburb, sixteen-year-old Tammi Campbell freezes when she spots Kurt Hutchinson—the shooter’s twin brother—in her therapist’s waiting room. In a town that refuses to see him as anything but a reflection of his brother’s violence, Kurt is drowning in guilt and isolation. Tammi, once the perfect “good girl,” is beginning to unravel herself. Yet while others turn away, Tammi says hello.

That small choice sparks an unlikely bond between Tammi, Kurt, and three other troubled teens—Connor, a thrill-seeking skater; Levi, his charming friend; and sophisticated Lula. Together they form their own therapy group, The Kryptonite Club, to shield them from a judgmental town and a broken world.

But healing is messy—boundaries blur, loyalties strain. As summer ends and college nears, things begin to splinter.

Then Kurt vanishes after a party.

As the search intensifies, buried secrets surface and fears about his worsening PTSD grow, turning his retreat into a race against time.
