Six friends. Five suspects. One murder.

Savana Caruso and Jesse Melo have known each other since they were kids, so when Jesse texts Savana in the middle of the night and asks her to meet him at Cray’s Warehouse, she doesn’t hesitate. But before Savana can find Jesse, she bears witness to a horrifying murder, standing helpless on the ground as a mysterious figure is pushed out of the fourth floor of the warehouse. 

Six teens were there that night, and five of them are now potential suspects. With the police circling, Savana knows what will happen if the wrong person is charged, particularly once she starts getting threatening anonymous text messages.

As she attempts to uncover the truth, Savana learns that everyone is keeping secrets—and someone is willing to do whatever it takes to keep those secrets from coming to light.

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn’t put down!

Thanks NetGalley and Inkyard Press for this eARC, these opinions are my own. I consumed this book in one day! I loved the way it was written, similar to the show How To Get Away With Murder! Savana and Jesse are the protagonists, the story starts with Jesse texting Savana to come see him. When she arrives she see someone falling through a window. And here is the fun part, at least for me the next half or so of the book tells the events leading up to the person falling from the window and at the end of many of the chapters their are police reports or interviews that give you clues to who the suspects are and to who fell from the window. The next half takes place after the body fell and goes through Savana and Jesse trying to figure out what happened. I love the present with flashes forward kind of mystery it adds to all the intrigue for me! Plus there were a lot of side plots that just added to the overall mystery of the story! Gabriella Lenore wrote a story that kept me guessing both in terms of who had died and in who had done it! For most of the book I had no clue with all the twists and turns there were! If you enjoy mysteries that keep you guessing especially if you like ones that keep you guessing on who the murdered is then you will love this book! I highly recommend it! Can’t wait to read it again!

4.0 out of 5 stars Teenage Drama With a Side of Murder
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2023
Savana Caruso and Jesse Melo have known each other since they were kids and so Savana doesn’t think anything of it when Jesse asks her to meet him at Cray’s Warehouse in the middle of the night. Before Savana can find Jesse though, she sees a mysterious figure falling out of the fourth floor of the warehouse. Six teens were there that night and, when the investigation points to murder, five of them become suspects. As the police circle in on the killer, Savana worries the wrong person will get charged, all while someone is making it their mission to keep the truth from coming to light.

Teen drama and murder, what more could you ask for? The book is divided into two parts, the before and the after. You are left completely in the dark in the first half - seriously, you don't even know who was murdered! Told in a kind of dual timeline, you see all the events that lead up to the murder (past) interspersed with bits of the police investigation (present). This lays all the groundwork for understanding the relationship between all the suspects and the victim and leaves your mind churning with all the potential motives once you reach the second half.

Each of the characters is complex and you are constantly questioning what you know about them as new things are revealed. They are also very much teenagers and act as such, which gave me flashbacks to watching teen dramas like One Tree Hill in my younger years. In this way, it felt a bit nostalgic and comforting, even when you remember that the whole plot is trying to figure out who is a murderer.

The story moves quickly, but the revelations come slowly. You are kept on the edge of your seat waiting for each new little clue to help you make your predictions. It’s not until just before the murderer is revealed that I was able to figure out who the murderer was, but the clue are all there from the start if you know where to look. Lepore’s ability to sprinkle in all the evidence against the murderer and still keep you in the dark is magnificent and her grasp on the makeup of a thriller keeps me coming back for more.

3.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Young Adult Mystery
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2023
Five teens are a suspect in a murder of one of the most popular boys in school, Raf. He was the ring leader in his friend group but he wasn’t the nicest guy. I like how the story starts off with the incident of Raf’s fall and Savana gets called to the area it happens. Right away we start getting into how these teens are involved by going back to the “start” so to speak. The timeline worked pretty well and I liked that it was told between Savana and Jesse’s perspectives. We are introduced to the five friends, Raf, Jesse, Tara, Freddie and Owen – the coolest kids in school. Savana is not part of the group but she’s close to Jesse who is the boy next door.

I easily read this book in one sitting and I felt like the story moved quickly. I thought Savana was a really good friend to Jesse and even Tara later. There is a mild friends to lovers romance going on between Savana and Jesse – though it takes a back seat with all the drama going on with Raf.

There are some tough topics discussed in this story like alcoholism, divorce, cheating, abusive relationships, bullying, and sexual assault but the story doesn’t go deep into the topics but it does give some suspects a motive for killing Raf.

As for the mystery of who committed the act – it was definitely someone I didn’t expect, but after hearing why the person did it, it made sense. But it would have been nice to have more hints about it throughout the book! Also Savana was supposed to be observing this popular group for a research project she was doing but it didn’t seem that important since we never see her doing any research whatsoever expect for observing the group of friends.

Why you should read it:
*it’s a quick read
*you like young adult murder mysteries

Why you might not want to read it:
*it’s an easy read – it has hard topics but doesn’t go deep into them

My Thoughts:

I like that this was a quick and easy read because sometimes mysteries can get too slow and boring for me. I finished this in one sitting. I thought Savana was a great character as she and Jesse try and figure out what happened the night Raf died. There are a lot of tough topics in the story but it doesn’t get too deep into them. It showed how each character was going through something behind closed doors and even though the five friends were supposedly close – they still kept secrets from one another. Overall, this was an enjoyable young adult mystery.
