Description
Four years after a gruesome murder, a teenage girl discovers that some secrets refuse to stay buried, in this riveting mystery from a "thriller master" (Publishers Weekly). Rose was thrilled when Angelica Lofft invited her to spend the weekend at her family's beautiful lake house. It had everything a girl could want: delicious treats, gorgeous horses, and an exquisite pool. But instead of a weekend of fun in the sun, someone ended up dead. Four years later, the police have reopened the case. This time they have Rose's diary-her private, personal diary-and Rose will do anything to get it back, even if it means stealing a police car. But now that she's destroyed the evidence, the police are convinced she saw something. And the longer Rose keeps her secrets, the more she risks losing everything . . . From the bestselling author of The Face on the Milk Carton comes a gripping thriller about the lies people tell and the consequences they can't escape.
