Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus

According to critic reviews, it is even better than the first book – with richer characters, more excitement and shocking twists. Two Can Keep a Secret is considered to be a must read for those that enjoy YA thrillers or murder mysteries.

High school student, Ellery, has just moved to Echo Ridge with a grandma she hardly knows. The town is picture perfect but holds an unpleasant history.

Ellery is a crime buff and knows all about the town’s history – like how her aunt disappeared without a trace at the age of 17 and 5 years ago, the high school’s homecoming queen was murdered. Disturbing acts of vandalism start happening, which could be the precursor to another murder. Not long after getting settled in, Ellery is elected homecoming queen, and someone threatens to make homecoming as dangerous as it was 5 years ago.

The longer Ellery is in Echo Ridge, the clearer it becomes that everyone is hiding a secret – the only thing is that secrets are dangerous and most people in the town are no good at keeping them.

Karen MacManus is the New York Times bestselling author of One of Us is Lying, which has been so popular that it was translated into 37 languages and is now sold worldwide. The sequel, Two Can Keep a Secret, was released in high anticipation.
