Six friends.
One college reunion.
One unsolved murder.

Ten years after graduation, Jessica Miller has planned her triumphant return to her southern, elite Duquette University, down to the envious whispers that are sure to follow in her wake. Everyone is going to see the girl she wants them to see—confident, beautiful, indifferent. Not the girl she was when she left campus, back when Heather Shelby's murder fractured everything, including the tight bond linking the six friends she'd been closest to since freshman year.

But not everyone is ready to move on. Not everyone left Duquette ten years ago, and not everyone can let Heather's murder go unsolved. Someone is determined to trap the real killer, to make the

guilty pay. When the six friends are reunited, they will be forced to confront what happened that night—and the years' worth of secrets each of them would do anything to keep hidden.
​
Told in racing dual timelines, with a dark campus setting and a darker look at friendship, love, obsession, and ambition, In My Dreams I Hold A Knife is an addictive, propulsive read you won't be able to put down.

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

In my Dreams I Hold a Knife is a solid murder mystery! What makes it even better is the dual timelines giving readers a broad perspective of the past when the murder took place and the present when the killer is finally being sought. Sometimes this trope can get tiring as it’s been used quite a bit, but the author did a phenomenal job making the dark academia trope unique and heart pounding. I really enjoyed this one. I’m so glad I decided to read it because books that are typically overhyped are a letdown for me. Not this one though! Now I’m excited to start her newest release from this year.

If you enjoy books where the characters are all brought together years after their friends unsolved murder (you know there are quite a few books like this) then this one is perfect for you!
