But I, Lenny Winter, did not kill that boy.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Lenny Winter is fifteen years old when she moves with her parents to an aging houseboat off the rugged coast of Washington. She imagines a quiet life spent charting constellations and chasing her dream of becoming an astronomer. Instead, a sudden tragedy shatters her world and catapults her to Blanchard, a renowned boarding school for the Pacific Northwest's elite, where wealth and tradition rule. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Blanchard is dazzling, insular-and haunted by its own legends. At its heart lurks the Pascalianum Club, a secret society known to shape the school's greatest and most notorious students, and whose influence stretches far beyond campus walls. Hungry to belong, Lenny is drawn into its orbit, even as she senses that the club feeds on the very vulnerabilities she is desperate to hide. As privilege collides with grief and loyalty warps into obsession, Lenny's choices will lead to an unforgettable reckoning--and a murder investigation that will test every story she tells herself about guilt, power, hope, and who she is becoming. \u003cp\u003e Sweeping, suspenseful, and deeply moving, \u003ci\u003eBright Work \u003c\/i\u003eis both a gripping mystery and a profound coming-of-age story--asking what we risk, what we become, and who we hold dear, when the need to belong eclipses everything else. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eli Raphael\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1538775875\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781538775875\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Grand Central Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 384\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.25h x 6.25w x 1.21d","brand":"Eli Raphael","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47473752047871,"sku":"9781538775875","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/night-objects-eli-raphael-9781538775875","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
