Blurb:
Kay Donovan may have skeletons in her closet, but the past is past, and she's reinvented herself entirely. Now she's a star soccer player whose group of gorgeous friends run their private school with effortless popularity and acerbic wit. But when a girl's body is found in the lake, Kay's carefully constructed life begins to topple.

The dead girl has left Kay a computer-coded scavenger hunt, which, as it unravels, begins to implicate suspect after suspect, until Kay herself is in the crosshairs of a murder investigation. But if Kay's finally backed into a corner, she'll do what it takes to survive. Because at Bates Academy, the truth is something you make...not something that happened.
My thoughts:
This book will keep you thinking. I finished this book in a day. it was that good.  this book also addresses the topic of mental illness and what it can do to the mind. I think that an author that can discuss the topic in a way that the reader can relate to, makes the book better. I don't think I could do what Kay did to her friends. That takes guts. I also liked that I could not predict who it was right off the bat. I had to think about it a bit. this book was very well written and flowed well. I wish that there was more. Overall, I recommend this book.
