crime detective investigation murder police

The Boslone Institute for Mental Health and Wellness houses the children of some of the most influential people in the world. Boasting of its seclusion and privacy factors on the little known and remote island of Boslone, the hospital is considered to be the best place to be for troubled kids. 
Until two nearly identical girls turn up dead less than two weeks apart. 
With both media and actual storms approaching, the understaffed and unqualified detectives of the island's tiny (and less than ethical) police station soon find themselves drawn into a case they can't solve on their own. As the media closes in and the island prepares for a storm of its own, they soon realize that what appear to be serial murders may be more than they ever imagined.

Hidden Truths|✓ by PinkPreppyPerfect

When Olivia Parker is found dead at a high school party gone wrong, it seems obvious who her killer was. Wesley Owens was found next to her covered in blood. Obviously, he did it. The question was why. With the entire senior class attending the end of the year bash, it shouldn't have been that simple to get away with the crime. There had to be witnesses and alibis, especially in the tight-knit friend group found at the scene. Now, with the eyes of everyone on them, the group has to pick up their broken pieces and figure out what actually happened that night before one of them gets falsely accused. With each step closer to the truth, the friends start to get more and more hesitant to reveal the truth and start to realize no one seems to be innocent. (Featured on Wattpad Picks twice!) (Shortlisted for the 2018 Wattys!) In the process of a rewrite!
