Full Description
Meet Anne Dowling - a fresh, original, and funny new YA heroine whose knowing, irreverent voice will remind readers of Pretty Little Liars and Private. Anne practically runs her exclusive prep school on New York's Upper East Side - that is, until she burns part of it down. Accidentally. Her lawyer father decides to send his not-quite-so-innocent only daughter to a prestigious boarding school outside of Boston. Determined to reform her bad girl ways and make it back to New York, making friends at the Wheatley School is the last thing Anne cares about. There is one girl Anne is able to stand, though - her roommate Isabella. That is, until Isabella's body is found in the woods behind the school. Anne is convinced someone knows what happened to Isabella the night she was viciously murdered - but no one is talking. That's when Anne starts to notice how old and creepy the Wheatley School really is. When she meets Isabella's twin brother and learns he also thinks the school might be covering up the truth about Isabella's death, Anne can't help it...she starts poking around.
Utilizing her lock-picking skills, unmistakable charm, and the help of a cute classmate named Brent, Anne discovers that Isabella wasn't quite the innocent nerdy girl she pretended to be. But someone will do anything to stop Anne's snooping around in this fast-paced, unputdownable read - even if it means framing her for Isabella's murder.
