The Secrets We Carry

Some secrets aren't meant to stay hidden. Some can get you killed. Collin never asked to be part of someone else's nightmare. But when he finds a battered journal stuffed in his backpack, its pages filled with fear, desperation, and the haunting words I'm in trouble. I want this to end. But how? I can't get away or he will destroy my whole life, he realizes someone at his school is in serious danger. But who? As Collin digs for answers, he discovers a twisted web of lies, blackmail, and silent suffering. Someone is pulling the strings, controlling her every move. And if he doesn't figure out who she is-and who's hurting her-before it's too late, the next entry in her journal might be her last. A gripping mystery of trust, betrayal, and the price of silence. Based on a merging of true stories.
