One of Us Is Lying was the first book by Karen M. McManus and the breakout New York Times bestselling hit. The book has been described as Pretty Little Liars meets Breakfast Club and that is an apt description. Five students at Bayview High are in detention on a Monday afternoon. They don’t have a lot in common as they are a brain, a beauty, a criminal, an athlete, and an outcast who created a gossip app. Before detention ends, one of them is dead – Simon, the outcast. Everyone is a suspect as Simon had planned to post gossip about the four in detention with him, but did they do it or are they just convenient suspects hiding a real killer?
McManus returned in Two Can Keep a Secret. Ellery has grown up knowing about the small town of Echo Ridge. Her aunt went missing there when she was 17 years old. Five years ago, the town was in the news again as a homecoming queen was killed. Now she is moving there to live with her grandmother. Right away Ellery sees that the town is hiding secrets and someone has declared open season on homecoming. Ellery finds herself as a target and decides to investigate to keep herself alive.
