Some friendships are to die for…
Emily Swanson has worked hard to escape her troubled past. Now, she’s a confident student teacher with a bright future. But when her classmate vanishes without a trace, Emily is the only one who seems to care.
The more she digs, the more she realises that Becky wasn’t who she claimed to be. Everyone has a reason to hate her—but has someone hated her enough to kill?
As Emily pieces together the truth, she’s caught in a deadly game of deception. And for the first time, she must face a chilling question: Is she trying to save her friend—or uncover a murder?
Set four years before the Emily Swanson series, Wish Me Dead is a gripping prequel packed with secrets, suspense, and shocking twists.
