People Like Us

 





People Like Us by Dana Mele  YA

(from Amazon)  Kay Donovan may have skeletons in her closet, but the past is past, and she's reinvented herself entirely. Now she's a star soccer player whose group of gorgeous friends run their private school with effortless popularity and acerbic wit. But when a girl's body is found in the lake, Kay's carefully constructed life begins to topple. The dead girl has left Kay a computer-coded scavenger hunt, which, as it unravels, begins to implicate suspect after suspect, until Kay herself is in the crosshairs of a murder investigation. But if Kay's finally backed into a corner, she'll do what it takes to survive. Because at Bates Academy, the truth is something you make...not something that happened.

(My Review)  If you like books set in a private school with a murder mystery, then this book is for you.  Kay is a soccer star who, along with her friends/teammates, finds a dead classmate.  She is targeted as a suspect, and (because of an email sent to her by the dead girl) finds herself caught up in a dangerous game and makes her face her own past.  I thought this was a good book and I recommend it.
