The New York Times bestseller!

A new take on Agatha Christie’s classic murder mystery The Mysterious Affair at Styles, with iconic detective Hercule Poirot recast as a brilliant, brash teen girl named Holiday, and narrated by her childhood friend Linden, an athlete-scholar who fits right in at his elite prep school—all the while hiding some secrets of his own.

Linden knows he doesn’t belong in elite Martha’s Vineyard. But when his prep school roommate, Jasper, invites him to spend the end of the summer at August House, his family’s massive beachfront estate, Linden tries to fit in. It’s not hard--after all, he’s been lying for years. And he’s not the only one….

Everyone at August House is ready for a wicked good time So when someone is found unconscious in the pool after a night of partying, it’s quickly labeled an accident. But Linden begins to wonder. . .

As does Holiday, Linden’s childhood friend and the only person on the island who knows the truth about his humble background. There’s nothing Holiday loves more than a mystery, and she’s convinced there’s a killer on the Vineyard. And now it’s up to them to figure out who.

"Pulse-pounding."—PW

liars liars everywhere

This book was good in spite of the language that was used throughout the book but I am able to look past that because Katie Cotugno does a really good job of making you feel like you are acually staying an August House with all of the characters. I will be getting the next book and I'm excited to see what Linden and holiday get up to.

A poor copy of Agatha Christie’s work.

Kind of a rip off when you consider this a copy of Agatha Christie’s work, It really was boring, the end twist was so uninspired I felt cheated. Might try author again but probably not.
