One of Us is Back




From international bestseller, Karen M. McManus, comes the explosive third and final thrilling instalment in the acclaimed One of Us... series - NOW IN A BRAND NEW LIMITED EDITION

Life hasn't been easy for the Bayview Crew. First they had to prove they weren't killers. Then a new generation had to outwit a vengeful copycat. Now, it's beginning again.

At first the mysterious billboard seems like a bad joke: Time for a new game, Bayview. But when a member of the crew disappears, it's clear this 'game' just got serious - and no-one understands the rules.

Everyone's a target. And now that someone unexpected has returned to Bayview, things are starting to get deadly.

Simon was right about secrets - they all come out in the end.
