Pay close attention and you might solve this.

On Monday afternoon, five students at Bayview High walk into detention.
Bronwyn, the brain, is Yale-bound and never breaks a rule.
Addy, the beauty, is the picture-perfect homecoming princess.
Nate, the criminal, is already on probation for dealing.
Cooper, the athlete, is the all-star baseball pitcher.
And Simon, the outcast, is the creator of Bayview High's notorious gossip app.

Only, Simon never makes it out of that classroom. Before the end of detention, Simon's dead. And according to investigators, his death wasn't an accident. On Monday, he died. But on Tuesday, he'd planned to post juicy reveals about all four of his high-profile classmates, which makes all four of them suspects in his murder. Or are they the perfect patsies for a killer who's still on the loose?
Everyone has secrets, right? What really matters is how far you would go to protect them.

I'm looking forward to this.

Me too!

This book was our high school's annual Kindle Tournament winner this year. I really liked it and Ms. McManus's other book, Two Can Keep a Secret, is awesome as well.

I've finished this one and really enjoyed it! I now see why my high school students like it.

I read this book a couple months back and really enjoyed it.

Vicki,
Have you read "Two Can Keep a Secret" yet? It is also by Sharon McManus. Our high schoolers really like that one also and I did too!
