Joshua Vanderwaal had more enemies than friends. So when he's found murdered at the glamorous Met Charity Gala, the suspect list is long. But five people stand out, each with a rock-solid motive and a burning hatred for the victim.
There's only one problem: they all confess.
Aria, Katherine, Jonathan, Alexander, and Fifi each admit to attacking Joshua that night, stabbing, poisoning, shooting, and bludgeoning him. Yet, the coroner's report says something else entirely. None of their attempts were fatal. Joshua Vanderwaal was strangled.
On her first day on the job, rookie officer Lois Clash makes a desperate gamble. She locks all five suspects in a room, forcing them to solve the murder themselves and expose the one who came back to finish the job.
But the real killer is one step ahead, turning the investigation into a twisted game. With cryptic riddles and a ticking bomb, Lois is no longer just a detective; she's a player.
Five liars. One victim. And a murderer who wants to play.
