"Hidden" by Helen Frost tells the story of two girls, Wren and Darra, whose lives collide in unexpected ways. Set against the backdrop of a rural community, the narrative unfolds through alternating perspectives, revealing the impact of a long-ago crime that forever alters their paths. As they grapple with guilt, loss, and the desire for connection, both girls must confront their pasts and discover what it means to forgive and to be forgiven. Through beautifully crafted verse, the novel explores themes of friendship, trust, and the complexities of human relationships, ultimately leading to a powerful, poignant resolution.
