The Lying Game #3: Two Truths and a Lie

From Sara Shepard, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Pretty Little Liars, comes another riveting addition to her twisted Lying Games series, about secrets, lies, and killer consequences.

Foster child Emma Paxton is finally starting to get the hang of walking in her dead twin sister’s fabulous shoes, even as she tries to track down Sutton’s murderer in this gripping teen thriller.

But Sutton was no angel, and the pranks she and her friends pulled leave Emma with a long list of suspects in a classic high school whodunnit. The most mysterious of them is Thayer Vega, who’s currently missing—a fact which many of Sutton’s friends blame on her. Emma has no idea what Sutton did that could have driven Thayer away. Until Thayer himself shows up on her doorstep.

Is he here to get revenge? Or is it possible he already has?

• A Dangerous Masquerade: To find her sister’s killer, Emma must become Sutton, fooling her friends, family, and a murderer who’s watching her every move.
• Dark High School Secrets: Sutton’s cruel pranks and the twisted “Lying Game” she played have created a long list of suspects—and any one of them could be guilty.
• A Mysterious Return: When the enigmatic Thayer Vega, a boy who vanished months ago, suddenly reappears, Emma can’t tell if he’s a clue, a threat, or the killer himself.
• Twisted Psychological Thriller: A classic whodunnit full of suspense, unreliable characters, and shocking reveals that will keep readers guessing until the very last page.

My killer is out there.

And my sister might be next.

Two months before I died, my best friend's brother disappeared. I have no idea where Thayer went or why he left, but I know it's my fault. I did a lot of horrible things while I was alive, things that made people hate me, maybe even enough to kill me.

Desperate to solve my murder, my long-lost twin, Emma, is pretending to be me and unraveling the many mysteries I left behind—my cryptic journal, my tangled love life, the dangerous Lying Game pranks I played. She's uncovered my friends' darkest secrets, but she's never had the chance to dig into Thayer's past—until now.

Thayer's back and Emma has to move fast to figure out if he's after revenge . . . or if he's already gotten it.
