Tell Me What Really Happened by Chelsea Sedoti.
Told through police interviews with four teenagers after their friend disappears during a camping trip. The book uses a unique format, with each teen giving their own version of events, revealing dark secrets, lies, and unreliable memories as they try to piece together what happened at Salvation Creek. It's a fast-paced thriller that explores themes of friendship, truth, and perception, with a plot that keeps readers guessing until the end.
