Dead people don't tell secrets

An even more compelling thriller from the bestselling author of One of Us Is Lying !

When her mother is admitted to rehab, Ellery and her twin brother must move in with their grandmother, whom they barely know. In the small town of Echo Ridge, they soon discover that behind the tree-lined streets and white-picket houses lie dark stories: their aunt disappeared at age 17 and was never found; years later, the homecoming queen, the same age, was murdered... And on the eve of back-to-school, threatening graffiti fills the town, promising to reenact the unsolved crimes of the past. Listed among the possible victims, Ellery decides to use her entire arsenal of detective stories and crime reports to unravel the mystery. But when a classmate is kidnapped, she realizes that, in Echo Ridge, secrets are best left to the grave.
