What We Buried

At Westdale High, secrets don’t stay buried for long.

Students are vanishing. Hallways buzz with rumors no one wants to say out loud. Behind every perfect smile, something dark waits to be unearthed.

Jake Carter is Westdale’s golden boy—athlete, charmer, the guy everyone thinks they know. But beneath the varsity jacket is a truth he’d kill to protect. Matt Walker used to believe they were best friends. Now he’s not so sure. When one lie turns into another grave secret, Matt’s left wondering how far Jake will go to keep it all hidden—and how far he’s willing to go to stop him.

Friendships fracture. Trust rots. And at Westdale High, sometimes the deadliest things are the ones you bury yourself.

A chilling young adult thriller about secrets, loyalty, and the line between friend and monster—perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and I Know What You Did Last Summer.
