YA
Fourteen-year-olds Emma, Anna, and Mariah are about to be caught in a lie about partying with older boys. They concoct a story of overcoming a sexual predator, and this lie takes on a life of its own. Despite a slow start and an improbable conclusion, the book effectively guides readers through the girls' perceptions of truth and deception.
