Prime Suspects

by Zara al-Mansour

At Evermist High, extra credit comes with a body count. The hidden room behind the chemistry lab wasn't supposed to exist. Neither was the teacher's corpse rotting inside it. But when Mr. Conway's "sick leave" stretches into a second week and the smell becomes impossible to ignore, Detective Kinley discovers that some lessons at Evermist High are taught in blood. The student body is buzzing with theories, but Kinley knows the killer is walking these halls, sitting in class, maybe even grading papers. Penny, the mousy girl whose sudden academic surge raises eyebrows. Lucas, the valedictorian whose perfect record hides a fractured psyche. Jasmine, whose rebellious streak masks something far more dangerous. Mrs. Hoffman, the physics teacher whose beauty conceals razor-sharp intelligence. The grieving widow who sheds tears on cue. And Wesley, the troublemaker whose hatred for Conway was no secret. Class is in session. Attendance is mandatory. Survival is optional.
