I was dead for 13 minutes.

I don't remember how I ended up in the icy water, but I do know this - it wasn't an accident and I wasn't suicidal.

They say you should keep your friends close and your enemies closer, but when you're a teenage girl, it's hard to tell them apart. My friends love me, I'm sure of it. But that doesn't mean they didn't try to kill me. Does it?

13 Minutes by Sarah Pinborough is a gripping psychological thriller about people, fears, manipulation, and the power of the truth. A stunning read, it questions our relationships - and what we really know about the people closest to us.
