McManus's most talked-about young adult thrillers into one giftable paperback set. One of Us Is Lying opens the run with a shocking premise: five students enter detention, and only four walk out alive, launching a mystery about the secrets teenagers keep to survive high school. Its companion novel, One of Us Is Next, returns to the same small town a year later, where an anonymous game of truth or dare turns deadly and old wounds resurface in new, dangerous ways. Two Can Keep a Secret moves to a different setting entirely, following a teen who arrives in a picture-perfect resort town only to discover that its homecoming-queen tradition hides a much darker history of unsolved deaths. The Cousins rounds out the set with a family-driven mystery, as three estranged cousins are summoned to their wealthy grandmother's private island and must untangle decades of buried secrets to understand why their parents were disinherited. Across all four novels, McManus uses shifting perspectives, tightly plotted reveals, and believable teenage voices to explore how easily trust can be broken and how far people will go to protect the people, and secrets, they love. Readers who enjoy contemporary mysteries with high-school settings, unreliable narrators, and satisfying final-act twists will find this an addictive, cohesive set that rewards careful reading from cover to cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour full-length YA thrillers from a #1 New York Times bestselling author in one collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach novel is a complete, self-contained mystery, perfect for binge-reading in any order\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback editions ideal for teen readers, book clubs, and classroom libraries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-paced plots with twisty reveals that appeal to fans of contemporary mystery and suspense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA ready-made gift set for birthdays, holidays, back-to-school, or summer reading lists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback format that's easy to pack for travel, school, or reading on the go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nOne of Us Is Lying — Five students walk into detention, but only four walk out alive, sparking a murder investigation that exposes every secret they were hiding.\u003cbr\u003e\nOne of Us Is Next — A dangerous game of truth or dare grips the same small town a year later, forcing a new group of students to choose between telling the truth or protecting themselves.\u003cbr\u003e\nTwo Can Keep a Secret — A teenager moves to a postcard-perfect town for her senior year, only to discover its homecoming tradition is haunted by a string of unsolved deaths.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Cousins — Three estranged cousins are summoned to their wealthy grandmother's island resort and must uncover the family secret that led their parents to be disinherited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nKaren M.
