by Dana Mele

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. Debut author Dana Mele has written a taut, sophisticated suspense novel that readers will tear through and not stop talking about.

Rating: 3.5 Stars

Bates should definitely NOT feature any of these young women in their pamphlets, because they are all pretty twisted. I enjoyed seeing the revenge plot unfold, and thought Mele guided us on a nice, twisty journey to finding the killer and the truth behind why these events unfolded. We met lots of damaged and really flawed characters. I do wish I got to know some of them better, and that they had been utilized more in the book. However, I thought the author did a great job tangling multiple mysteries, and I was throughly entertained.
