This kept me reading until I reached the climax. There are almost three mysteries within the story that I wanted to know the answer to, what happened with the twins aunt, who was responsible for murdering Lacey Killduff and who’s the one leaving the threats. Two Can Keep A Secret certainly started off with a bang with a body found in the middle of the road within the first couple of chapters and then the threats beginning. When the twins arrive at Echo Ridge it’s not long before drama envelops the town once again, with threats being made against this years homecoming queen potentials. Sarah’s disappearance isn’t the only tragedy to strike Echo Falls though, a Homecoming Queen was also murdered five years before the twins arrival, and still hangs over the town with the identity of her killer having never been proven. So you can imagine my excitement when I picked up Two Can Keep A Secret.Įllery and Ezra are twins who have spent their whole lives in California, they’ve never visited Echo Ridge, the town where their mother grew up and her sister went missing. It was one of my first forays back into YA fiction and it certainly did it’s job in reminding me just how amazing YA can be. The truth might be closer to home than either of them want to believe.Īnd somebody would kill to keep it hidden.īack in 2017 I picked up One Of Us Is Lying and absolutely loved it. As they race to unravel what happened, they realize every secret has layers in Echo Ridge.
Then another girl disappears, and Ellery and Malcolm were the last people to see her alive. No one has forgotten Malcolm’s brother-and nobody trusts him when he suddenly returns to town.Įllery and Malcolm both know it’s hard to let go when you don’t have closure. His mother’s remarriage vaulted her and Malcolm into Echo Ridge’s upper crust, but their new status grows shaky when mysterious threats around town hint that a killer plans to strike again. His older brother was the prime suspect and left Echo Ridge in disgrace.
Malcolm grew up in the shadow of the Homecoming Queen’s death. No one knows what happened to either girl, and Ellery’s family is still haunted by their loss. And where Ellery now has to live with a grandmother she barely knows, after her failed-actress mother lands in rehab. Where a Homecoming Queen’s murder five years ago made national news. It’s where her aunt went missing at age sixteen, never to return. Ellery’s never been to Echo Ridge, but she’s heard all about it.
