The One That Got Away with Murder

First comes love, then comes murder . . . in this edge-of-your-seat debut YA thriller about a teen racing against time to catch a murderer targeting young girls—before she ends up the next victim—perfect for fans of Karen McManus and Holly Jackson.

Lauren O'Brian might be the new girl, but she's never been a good girl. With a dark past that she hopes will never come to light, she's looking forward to a fresh start in Happy Valley. Things might just be looking up after she meets her new broodingly handsome no-strings-attached hookup, Robbie Crestmont.

Except Robbie's got a body count—the murderous kind. Actually, it might just run in the family. Lauren's entire town believes the Crestmont brothers are responsible for the deaths of their respective ex-girlfriends. And when Lauren is invited to the Crestmonts' lake house, she finds evidence enough to prove their guilt.

But Lauren starts to think Robbie's not the only suspect. There's a town full of possibilities. Will she be able to let her guard down to find the real killer? Or is the murderer just waiting for her to get vulnerable?

Full of nail-biting twists, The One That Got Away with Murder is a gripping debut about owning your past, the cost of our mistakes, and the hardest question of all: Was it him all along?
