Publisher's summary

New York Times bestselling Sisters of Suspense join forces for a gripping standalone novel about a clique of popular girls whose high school friendship is marked by a tragedy that continues to haunt them decades later. Jackson and Bush take the reader’s hand and twist them through this shocking tale of suspense.

First they were five. Then they were four.

Whose turn will it be next?

At Bristol High they were an elite clique known as the Five Firsts: Amanda, Bailey, Carmen, Delta and Zora...ABCD & Z. They could have accepted their classmate, Emmy, as "E", but with her bookish disposition and her embarrassing status of scholarship student to boot, they rejected her and chose wealthy Zora instead.

At a pre-graduation party just before the end of senior year, Lance Ventura, the hottest guy in school, falls down an embankment toward the river and is barely rescued in time to save his life. One of the Five Firsts, Carman, rushes to save him, but isn't so lucky. Her sudden death causes a community to mourn and rumors of foul play to swirl, but the tragedy is ruled an accident.

Fast forward ten years and the classmates all meet again at the high school reunion. Some of them have had good fortune in their lives. Others, not so much.

Well written

kept my attention from beginning to end. with so many characters she managed to keep you on track with each one throughout the book

good book

I didn't know who the volcano was tell the very end. It was very realistic

Great narration! And story keeps you hooked

Love these authors! As my headline stated- the narrator was awesome! Easy to listen too and the story keeps you hooked- wondering who is killing these long time friends- and love how it flashes back to when they were young- definitely one of my favorite audiobooks!

disappointed

what could have been a great read didnt get started until about chapter 14. Too many chapters of teen girl nonscence. Then when the story picked up nicely disappointed again. SPOILER ALERT The ridiculous ending came too quickly & was out of the blue, disconnected from the theme and totally unrealiatic. The performance however was excellent .

Worth the time!!!

This was a really good book. I enjoyed it from beginning to end. If you are looking for an entertaining listen, this is it.

Unexpected Suspects

Loved this book! Started out slow but the bbq quickened the plot. Narrator was great!

Glad I listened to this book.

Angela Dawe is an excellent narrator for this book. High school students and teachers who are way to hormonal and 20 years later go on a murder spree.

Loved it!

Great book. Well developed characters and very difficult to figure out who did it. Kept me guessing the whole time!

My Thoughts

Loved the story.
Was truely surprised at the villain and the circumstances.
There are really some twisted people out there.
was happy at how one particular romance worked out. And surprised at how Zora turned out. Her personality took a sad turn for the worst, poor thing
Thought little Owen was to die for. And I was saddened by a few of the deaths.
All in all definitely a book I'd read/listen to again.

Good, except for...

I enjoyed the whole book, but then the end kind of spoiled it for me. Not only did the who done it at the end lack pizzazz, I was like, what, who, and oh come on now.
