The Lying Game

Emma was this girl who had to go into foster care and that she has a miserable life, moving all the time - having new foster guardians every few months. One day when her foster brother showed her this video of this girl getting murdered (or it was an act), he assumed it was her because Emma and the girl being murdered (Sutton) look exactly alike, they must've been long-lost twin. Emma drove to Tuscon where Sutton lived hoping that she will meet Sutton, unfortunately Emma ran into some of Sutton's friends and from then on her life changed. Everybody thought she was Sutton (her twin sister), no matter how much she tries to deny it nobody believes her because Sutton has been a girl who would always lie and pull cruel pranks on everybody. Emma then found out that the Sutton was really dead (the murder sent a note to her), this made Emma worried and she was determined to find out who had murder her sister. Before Sutton died, she had created a game called 'the lying game' where she and her friends would pull pranks on people even though they were dangerous and very cruel Sutton was unstoppable. Still playing the role of Sutton, Emma was suspicious that one of Sutton's best friend could possibly be the one who've killed her but she hasn't got enough evidence to prove it.
It was a fast pace book and it ended with a cliffhanger, this book is the first book to the series Sara Shepard is writing, I really like the plot of this book and how the author has created suspense to just one problem. I also find it very creepy because the ghost of Sutton is observing Emma in this book and the book itself is very mysterious.
