Horror in the woods

Hartinger, B. (2016). Three Truths and a Lie. New York, NY. Simon Pulse. 9781481449601; Hardback; $17.99 (also available in ebook, audio book, paperback)

Have you ever played three truths and a lie? The object of the game is to figure out which statement is a lie by looking at the speaker’s tells. Couples Rob and Liam and Mia and Galen decide to play when they get stuck indoors during a particularly rainy night at Mia’s family’s cabin in the Pacific Northwest. However, for Rob, Liam, Mia, and Galen, the object of the game morphs from figuring out the lie to figuring out who is trying to scare, or worse, kill them and why. As the weekend goes on, everyone reveals that they have secrets, deadly secrets, and not everyone who started playing the game will make it out alive. So, are you ready to play Three Truths and a Lie?

This book includes mentions of drugs, sex, homosexuality, and quite obviously violence - best suited for high school aged kids and up.
