Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas
This is the last of the three books I borrowed from my daughter the other day. It's also my first completed book of 2017.
This is the story of Anna. Anna who is in love with Tate. Anna who is best friends with Elise. Anna who is accused of Elise's brutal murder when they and their friends are on Spring Break in Aruba with their friends.
The timeline jumps around a bit. Sometimes, it's in the past, when Anna started attending the fancy schmancy prep school in Boston where she meets Elise. Sometimes, it's just a few months' past, when Elise is murdered. Sometimes, it's the present, during Anna's imprisonment and trial.
Anna is accused of murdering Elise, but, at first, so is Tate. Tate's family is rich, though, so he makes a deal with law enforcement to no longer be charged. The same isn't true for Anna. The evidence they have is circumstantial at best, and there are other people who are more likely to have committed the crime.
Anna goes on trial, and you can see the strain it puts on her. She is facing twenty years. She is being smeared in the news media. Will Anna be found guilty?
