Everything You Want Me to Be by Mindy Mejia tells the story of Hattie Hoffman, an 18-year-old aspiring actress who is found brutally stabbed in an abandoned barn in her rural Minnesota community. When Sheriff Del Goodman starts to investigate the high school senior's final days, he discovers her dangerous online relationship, and he's forced to question whether Hattie was a victim or a master manipulator — or perhaps both.
