When another student starts leaving suicide notes for the new English teacher, it turns out Zehan might not be the only one trying to take his life.

A friend To Remember. by zephina__

**** Money. Wealth. Fame. Power. They have it all. But beneath the glitz and glamour lies something far more sinister. Denise never imagined that her past was a lie. That twelve years ago, her life had been stolen from her. Growing up in the slums of Lagos, she learned not to dream-dreams didn't belong to people like her. All she wanted was a way out, a job to pull her and her sister out of poverty. But when the truth comes crashing down, her simple existence is ripped apart. She isn't just another struggling girl-she is the long-lost daughter of one of Nigeria's wealthiest families. And they want her back. Thrown into a world of untold riches, Denise is expected to adjust, to play her part in a life she never knew existed. But not all that glitters is gold. Her twin sister despises her, her new family is drowning in secrets, and the mystery of her kidnapping looms over her like a dark shadow. To make things worse, Bellrich Academy-the elite school she now attends-is a battlefield of ruthless rich teens, social hierarchies, and cruel mind games. And lurking beneath it all? A serial killer picking off students one by one. In this world, failure is not an option. Survival means navigating deadly secrets, deadly people, and deadly truths. Because in the world of the elite, the most dangerous thing Denise can be-is unprepared.
