E.B. Vickers has published two standalone YA novels. Fadeaway (2021) tracks the search for a missing basketball star through the voices of those who knew him best, using mixed formats including poetry and official statements to build the picture. Where There’s Smoke (2023) centers on a young woman who finds a traumatized girl hiding on her family’s property and has to decide who she can trust.
Both books are set in the kind of small communities where everyone knows everyone’s business, and both use that closeness to ratchet up the tension as secrets surface.
