Perry, Clare’s older brother, is a pretty unlikeable dude. Her psychic abilities - and everyone’s knowledge of them - made her strong, and it was her love for family that kept her grounded. I loved that, in contrast to so many weak-willed, boring heroines, Clare was a fiery teen unwilling to let anyone boss her around. Kim Harrington’s Clarity, a new young adult novel with a paranormal twist, kept me on the edge of my seat from the very beginning. but this case is anything but predictable. Still scorned but now necessary to the investigation, Clare agrees to help find the killer. The situation moves from serious to grave as Clare’s brother, Perry, becomes implicated in Victoria’s death, and Clare is called in by a new detective and his handsome son to assist with the case. and who killed Victoria, an out-of-towner? But everyone’s fear of losing business is nothing compared to the sadness and terror of having a murder committed in their tiny town. Like the entire town, the Fern family thrives on tourism - and depends on wealthy visitors dropping dough to stay afloat in the off-season. When a teen girl is found dead in a nearby hotel, the residents of Eastport, Mass., are up in arms. With just a touch, Clare can see other people’s secrets - including ones that end in murder. Labeled a freak by the bullies who have taunted her since childhood, Clare works hard to ignore the skeptical looks and taunts that come with being a known psychic.
Clare Fern is used to stomaching the dubious looks of classmates and residents of her tourist town in Cape Cod.
