SYNOPSIS
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."

MILANA'S REVIEW
I'm so excited Indigo picked this as the May Teen Spotlight because I read this one back when it first released last year in 2017 and it was so good! Fast paced, keeps you guessing and has a Breakfast Club feel for all you 80s fans. There aren't many YA thrillers and after reading this one I knew we needed more! Check out One of Us is Lying for a fresh new read! If you'd like to read a more in-depth review from me check out my review HERE.
