#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - There's a new mystery to solve at Bayview High, and there's a whole new set of rules. The highly anticipated sequel to One of Us Is Lying Come on, Bayview, you know you've missed this. A ton of copycat gossip apps have popped up since Simon died, but in the year since the Bayview four were cleared of his shocking death, no one's been able to fill the gossip void quite like he could. The problem is no one has the facts. Until now. This time it's not an app, though--it's a game. Truth or Dare. Phoebe's the first target. If you choose not to play, it's a truth. And hers is dark. Then comes Maeve and she should know better--always choose the dare. But by the time Knox is about to be tagged, things have gotten dangerous. The dares have become deadly, and if Maeve learned anything from Bronwyn last year, it's that they can't count on the police for help. Or protection. Simon's gone, but someone's determined to keep his legacy at Bayview High alive. And the rules have changed. Fans of the hit thriller that started it all can watch the secrets of the Bayview Four be revealed in the One of Us is Lying TV series now streaming on NBC's Peacock
Totuus vai tehtävä? Kumman sinä valitsisit: nöyryyttävän salaisuuden paljastumisen vai kohtalokkaan vaarallisen tehtävän? Bayview'n lukiota alkaa piinata uusi oppilaiden menneisyyttä syynäävä painajainen. Tällä kertaa kyseessä on peli - totuus vai tehtävä. Kun ensimmäinen uhri ei halua pelata, hänen puolestaan valitaan totuus. Erityisen synkkä paljastus tekee kerralla selväksi, että tässä pelissä valitaan aina tehtävä. Lopulta peliin mukaan pakotetut joutuvat taistelemaan jopa hengestään. Nuoret ovat omillaan, sillä Maeve on oppinut sisarensa Bronwenin kohtalosta: poliisin apuun ei kannata luottaa. Toisessa suomennetussa romaanissaan Karen M. McManus palaa menestyskirjansa Yksi meistä valehtelee miljööseen, ja tarina tempaa lukijat imuunsa samaan tuttuun tapaan. Tällä kertaa kierrokset ovat vielä kovemmat ja lopputulos todella järkyttää.

Forfatteren bak bestselgeren En av oss lyver er tilbake med nok en spennende thriller! Echo Ridge er en ganske alminnelig amerikansk småby som Ellery har hørt mye om helt fra hun var liten. Tanten hennes forsvant nemlig derfra som 17-åring. For fem år siden ble småbyen igjen satt på kartet da en avgangselev på high school ble funnet drept. Det er denne byen Ellery plutselig blir nødt til å flytte til. Og ikke nok med det: Hun må bo hos bestemoren sin, som hun knapt kjenner. Ved første øyekast virker småbyen hyggelig, men under overflaten skjuler den mange hemmeligheter. Før skoleåret har rukket å komme i gang, truer en ukjent avsender byen med at høstsemesteret kommer til å bli like farlig som for fem år siden. Og ikke lenge etter blir en avgangselev meldt savnet. Ellery har vokst opp med hemmeligheter. Moren hennes har mange. Bestemoren hennes også. Hemmeligheter kan være farlige. I Echo Ridge gjør en klokt i å holde hemmelighetene for seg selv.
The follow up YA thriller from the author of the international bestseller One of Us is Lying. A perfect town is hiding secrets. Secrets that somebody would kill to keep hidden. Ellery's never been to Echo Ridge, but she's heard all about it. It's where her aunt went missing at age sixteen, never to return. Where a Homecoming Queen's murder five years ago made national news. And now she has to live there with her estranged grandmother, after her mother lands in rehab. Malcolm grew up in the shadow of the Homecoming Queen's death. His older brother was the prime suspect and left Echo Ridge in disgrace. But now he's back- just as mysterious threats appear around town, hinting that a killer will strike again. Then another girl disappears. As Ellery and Malcolm race to unravel what happened, they realise every secret has layers in Echo Ridge. 'Tightly plotted and brilliantly written, with sharp, believable characters, this whodunit is utterly irresistible' - HEAT

Four years ago, Brynn left Saint Ambrose School following the shocking murder of her favorite teacher-a story that made headlines after the teacher's body was found by three Saint Ambrose students in the woods behind their school. The case was never solved. Now that Brynn is moving home and starting her dream internship at a true-crime show, she's determined to find out what really happened. The kids who found Mr. Larkin are her way in, and her ex-best friend, Tripp Talbot, was one of them. Without his account of events, the other two kids might have gone down for Mr. Larkin's murder. They've never forgotten what Tripp did for them that day. Just like he hasn't forgotten that everything he told the police was a lie. Digging into the past is bound to shake up the present, and as Brynn begins to investigate what happened in the woods that day, she begins to uncover secrets that might change everything-about Saint Ambrose, about Mr. Larkin, and about her ex-best friend, Tripp Talbot. Four years ago someone got away with murder. The most terrifying part is that they never left.
