DescriptionFrom Chelsea Ichaso, the author of Little Creeping Things, comes a gripping YA thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. They're Watching You is a dark and thrilling journey into the secrets and dangers lurking within the walls of a prestigious boarding school. A must-read for fans of suspenseful and twisty plots.
Polly St. James has been missing for two weeks. The authorities, the headmistress of Torrey-Wells Academy, and even her own parents have labelled her a runaway. But Maren, her best friend and roommate, refuses to accept this conclusion. She is certain Polly had a secret, something big involving the elite and ultra-privileged crowd at their boarding school, and she was on the verge of revealing it to Maren before her sudden disappearance.
When Maren discovers an envelope hidden among Polly's belongings, she finds an invitation to the clandestine Gamemaster's Society. The instructions are clear: "Do not tell anyone." Intrigued and desperately seeking answers, Maren decides to infiltrate this secret society. But entry into the Society is no easy feat. To be accepted, she must undergo a series of treacherous initiations.
Once inside, Maren uncovers a world of high-stakes games where Society members compete for extraordinary rewards – Ivy League connections, exclusive privileges, and coveted favours. However, Maren soon realises she has been ensnared in a far more dangerous game. To discover the truth about Polly, Maren must keep winning. Each victory brings her another clue, but it also exposes the immense power and deadly nature of the Society.
As the stakes rise and the dangers escalate, Maren finds herself in a perilous situation. The Society sees everything, knows everything, and controls everything. And if someone tries to defy them, they will stop at nothing, even resorting to murder.
With twists and turns at every corner, They're Watching You will immerse you in its suspenseful plot and leave you questioning everyone and everything at Torrey-Wells Academy. An enthralling thriller that demonstrates just how far someone will go to uncover the truth and how perilous secret societies can be.
