About This Book
Reach for this book when your teen is looking for a fast-paced thriller that explores the dark side of social belonging and the dangers of groupthink.

It is an ideal choice for readers who enjoy high-stakes suspense without the graphic nature of modern horror. The story follows a group of students caught in a game of Truth or Dare that quickly spirals out of control as a hidden antagonist uses the game to exact revenge. It serves as an engaging entry point for discussing boundaries, personal safety, and the importance of trusting one's instincts in social situations. Parents will find this to be a popcorn read that subtly reinforces the message that true friends do not demand dangerous proof of loyalty.
