What Lies in the Woods by Kate Alice Marshall

 Brief Summary

A young girl is stabbed in the woods while her friends witness the event.  A serial killer is convicted of the crime and later dies in prison.  The girls reunite after his death to discuss their secrets.  The body count rises as the story uncovers that this serial killer was not to blame for the original attack, but you would never guess who was.

The Goddess Game

Much of this book revolves around a make-believe child's game invented by one of the little girls.  The Thrill Seekers were unable to grasp the concept of this game and thought it was useless.  However, it was very much important to the plot.

Relationships

It's all about the relationships forged in the book.  This leads to identity crises, jealousy, and terrible mistakes (or were they?).  One thing we all agreed on, though - Cassidy was crazy.

3 out of 5 rating (from 3 Thrill Seekers)
