The Lying Game by Sara Shepard
I really enjoyed this book. It's very chilling as to who is the puppet master in this thriller. Lots of twists and turns so it's hard to figure out who might be the guilty person. You also meet Sutton, the dead sister as she narrates the story in the perspective of a ghost. The contrast of the two separated girls' lives is huge. Emma is a foster girl who has lived in many a foster home and was kicked out of the last one because of the false accusations. Meanwhile Sutton, the adopted daughter of a affluent and rich family a few states over has been cruel to other students. Sutton the ghost, gets to see what she has done to others in fresh eyes. A good read.
