Description: Five students walk into detention, but only four walk out alive. When Simon, the creator of Bayview High’s notorious gossip app, dies, investigators rule it suspicious. The remaining four—Bronwyn the brain, Cooper the athlete, Addy the beauty, and Nate the criminal—become prime suspects. Each has secrets Simon planned to reveal, and each has a motive. As the investigation deepens, alliances shift, lies unravel, and the truth becomes murkier. Tense pacing and multiple points of view create a layered, character-driven whodunit that asks how far people will go to keep their secrets hidden. This book contains teen mystery and thriller elements and are best suited for mature middle and high school readers (preferably 14+ yrs).
