Deadly stakes, dangerous secrets, and a cut-throat game where the winners are set for life. Welcome to the Boston School, and the world of the Liars Society. Weatherby and Jack have been tapped to join Last Heir, the most powerful secret society in the world, but the night of the first gambit, the game takes a terrifying turn. Now, Jack and Weatherby are in a race against time to discover the truth about the game - and themselves. But how do you know who to trust when everyone is a liar? Beloved author Alyson Gerber is back with a highly-anticipated sequel full of twists and turns, secrets and lies, friends and foes. Can you spot the difference? Praise for The Liars Society: "Part sports adventure, part prep-school secret society puzzle mystery, The Liars Society is all action and adrenaline. Surprising and absorbing." -- E. Lockhart, #1 New York Times bestselling author of We Were Liars and Family of Liars "Clear out your day, because this is the type of book you're going to want to devour in one sitting. Multiple mysteries, a mysterious secret society, family drama, deception, skullduggery and plenty of surprise twists. What more could you possibly ask for?" -- Stuart Gibbs, New York Times bestselling author of the Spy School series "A spectacular mystery filled with prep school intrigue, generational secrets, and characters who find themselves caught in a high-stakes game of deception. You want to start this series now . . . trust me." -- Christina Diaz Gonzalez, Edgar award-winning author of Concealed "This unputdownable mystery is bursting with plot twists, juicy secrets, and loveable heroes to root for - readers will be hooked by Gerber's thrilling, fast-paced series opener!" -- Sarah Mlynowski, New York Times bestselling author of Whatever After "Everything at the Boston School is perfect. Except the past. Behind the ivied walls of the elite New England prep school lies a maze of family secrets, mysterious societies, and cryptic codes. Alyson Gerber unravels a twisty tale sure to grab you from the first pages." -- James Ponti, bestselling author of City Spies "If you were asked to join a secret society that claims to control the whole world, would you jump at the chance-or run the other way? In The Liars Society, scholarship student Weatherby and wealthy, privileged Jack have to grapple with that question even as they struggle to sort out truth, trust, tradition . . . and secrets of their own. This twisty tale will keep kids guessing from beginning to end!" - Margaret Haddix, New York Times bestselling author of the Greystone Secrets series "No spoilers! The Liars Society kept me guessing up until the final twist!" -- Gordon Korman, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Slugfest and Mixed Up "Absorbing intrigue with a cliffhanger ending." -- Kirkus Reviews Praise for Focused: * "Clea's likability, persistence, and ability to bounce back from adversity is truly inspiring. Author Gerber, who has ADHD herself, is able to compassionately and realistically convey the experience in this sweetly appealing story." -- Booklist, starred review * "An accurate and compassionate picture of growing up with ADHD is the icing on the cake of this well-told novel." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred reveiw Praise for Braced: * "The author doesn't diminish Rachel's difficulties, but at heart her story is uplifting . . . Comparisons to Judy Blume's Deenie might be inevitable, but Rachel stands admirably on her own." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review * "A masterfully constructed and highly empathetic debut
