Beware That Girl

From award-winning author Teresa Toten comes a powerful and twisted psychological thriller that will rightly draw comparisons to We Were Liars and Gone Girl. In Beware That Girl, Kate O’Brien appears to be a “Have-Not.” Her whole life has been a series of setbacks that she’s had to snake her way out of — some more sinister than others. But she’s determined to change that. She’s book smart. She’s street smart. Oh, and she’s also a masterful liar. Her plan is to climb the social ladder and land a spot at Yale. But, as the scholarship student at the elite Waverly School in New York City, Kate has her work cut out for her.
