Two Sides to Every Murder

Danielle Valentine

Friday the 13th meets The Parent Trap in this propulsive YA thriller by the author of How to Survive Your Murder, now in paperback!

"A must-read for fans of true crime, dark family secrets, and intricate mysteries." --Ryan La Sala, bestselling author of The Honeys

Most people's births aren't immortalized in a police report--but Olivia was born during the infamous Camp Lost Lake murders. Seventeen years later, Olivia's life looks pretty perfect . . . until she discovers the man she calls dad is not her biological father. Now she wants answers about her bloodline, and the only place she knows to look is Camp Lost Lake.

Most people don't spend their formative years on the run with an alleged murderer--but Reagan did. In the court of public opinion, her mom was found guilty of the deaths at Camp Lost Lake, and both of them have been in hiding ever since. But Reagan believes in her mother's innocence and is determined to clear her name.

Luckily for Olivia and Reagan, Camp Lost Lake is finally reopening, providing the perfect opportunity to find answers. But someone else is dead set on keeping the past hidden, even if it means committing murder.
