Nothing More to Tell
by McManus, Karen M.
Four years ago, Brynn Gallagher’s favorite teacher was found dead in the woods, and the case has haunted her small town ever since. When she lands an internship at a true-crime show, she returns home determined to solve the murder that the police gave up on. But as she reconnects with her former best friend, Tripp, who was there the day the body was found, she realizes that the truth is far more dangerous than she imagined. The story shifts between perspectives, building a tense, claustrophobic atmosphere where every character is hiding something behind a polished facade. It is a fast-paced, addictive puzzle that keeps you guessing until the final pages. If you enjoy messy high school dynamics, cold cases that refuse to stay buried, and narrators you cannot fully trust, this is your next obsession.
