Lies Like Poison

'A journey into the dark corners of friendship.' --Mindy McGinnis, author of The Female of the Species Riverdale meets Karen M. McManus's Two Can Keep a Secret in this 'twisty, sumptuous dark fairy tale of a mystery' (Kara Thomas, author of The Cheerleaders) about estranged friends who reunite when someone commits the murder they'd planned--but didn't go through with--and leaves one of their own to take the fall.Poppy, Lily, and Belladonna would do anything to protect their best friend, Raven. So when they discovered he was suffering abuse at the hands of his stepmother, they came up with a lethal plan: petals of poppy, belladonna, and lily in her evening tea so she'd never be able to hurt Raven again. But someone got cold feet, the plot faded to a secret of the past, and the group fell apart. Three years later, on the eve of Raven's seventeenth birthday, his stepmother turns up dead. But it's only belladonna found in her tea, and it's only Belladonna who's carted off to jail.
