Kelsea Yu
In this twisty, fast-paced YA thriller, a dangerous game becomes all too real when Marina and her friends are framed for murder.
When Marina Chan ran from her old life, she brought nothing with her—not even her real name. Now she lives in fear of her past being discovered. But when her online gaming team is offered a tour of their favorite game company, Marina can’t resist accepting, even though she knows it might put her fake identity at risk.
Then the creator of the game is murdered during their tour. The killer plans to frame Marina and her friends for the murder unless they win four rounds of a dangerous game. A game that requires them to lie, trespass, and steal. A game that could destroy everything Marina’s worked so hard to build…. A game that she might not survive.
This pulse-pounding YA thriller is perfect for fans of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and Slay.©2024 Kelsea Yu (P)2024 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

[A] page-turning thrill ride . . . Unputdownable.
Yu anchors this whirlwind debut with a smart, courageous, loyal, and caring heroine who easily earns the trust of friends and readers alike.
This layered debut has propulsive momentum with effective cliffhangers and twists threaded throughout.
