Cruel Summer (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218680213)

Eight friends, the"Brat Pack" of their high school, celebrate their Class of 1989 graduation. A mysterious gift arrives from a wannabe, Secret Admirer, who challenges them to a game of Truth or Dare. The only problem: it's impossible for them to win, yet they are forced to play. Their Secret Admirer shares riddles threatening to expose their darkest secrets to each other and shatter their world. Yet, the biggest mystery for them is: WHO IS THEIR ADMIRER? Their friendships, reputations, and ultimately, their lives are threatened as this riddle-filled game plays out.

Set against 80s pop culture, they must navigate the transitions from high school to college, the 80s into the 90s, and their teens into young adults. Who will be successful? Who will fail? Who will survive their coming of age?

If you loved 80s movies like St. Elmo's Fire, The Big Chill, and The Breakfast Club, were captivated by Beverly Hills, 90210 and Melrose Place in the 90s, and Millennial shows like Pretty Little Liars and Gossip Girl, you have discovered your new Obsession.
