Description
Female friendship is intense and that intensity can erupt into dangerous passions when teenage girls are cooped up in an exclusive East Coast boarding school.
Beautiful, streetwise Cassidy Thomas; debutante jock Abby Madison; academic, sensitive Karen Mullens; and sophisticated troublemaking Zoey Spalding are four seventeen-year-olds who should be cruising happily through their Senior Year. But jealousies are simmering. And when Zoey plays a game with the class list--if you lose your virginity you get a star beside your name--it sets in motion a chain of shocking events.
Nine months later, when one of the girls is murdered, the others must ask themselves if they can carry the truth of what happened the rest of their lives.
Tell Us No Secrets describes the bonds between these adolescent girls as well as the terrible pain of betrayal and the tragic consequences of peer pressure running riot at a time when the seismic shift of the Sixties changed the rules for everyone.

Loved the book, which I finished in a day. I had to laugh out loud at some of the descriptions of the teenage interactions - the author captures those female relationships so well. This is set in a boarding school and it has everything I needed for a summer read: compelling and real characters, twists and turns and a great ending. Perfect book to start the summer. A psychological thriller that keeps you gripped!
