From New York Times bestselling author Jessica Goodman comes a twisty mystery about three best friends, one elite summer camp, and the dark secrets that lead to a body in the lake.

Summer can’t get here soon enough; Goldie and her camp friends—who know her better than anyone else—will finally be counselors.

But Goldie’s been keeping a terrible secret. And so are her best friends. When a teen turns up dead one night, Goldie knows that one of her best friends was at the scene of the crime and is lying about her whereabouts. With danger lurking, asking questions offers no answers, only cracking bonds of lifelong friendship and betrayals deeper than Goldie ever imagined.

“[A] delicious and layered thrill ride.” —Marie Claire
