Rumors by A.C.Arthur

Rumor has it…he will kill again.

Her death tore them apart. Will solving her murder bring them back together?

Best friends Landy, Tenile, Nicole, Nathan, Justin, and Kareem were the golden children of Tanner University. Their paths were set: doctors, lawyers, business moguls, they were going to light the world on fire. Then, two weeks before graduation, Landy was murdered—and Nathan was blamed. Though he was never charged, vicious rumors drove him from town, and the circle of friends broke.

Ten years later, Nathan is back in Tanner, determined to clear his name. He’s asking questions no one wants answered, and soon rumors threaten to divide the community once more. Everyone in this small town is keeping big secrets—especially Landy’s old friends—and someone is willing to kill to keep their darkest deeds buried…

My Review

This was a good book. I finished it in a couple of hours. It took a little bit to get use to the way it was written, it jumps back and forth through all of the characters POV without warning. But after the first few times I got use to it.

Tenile, Nathan, Justin, Kareem, Nicole and Landy were all best friends in college. But that was 10 years ago. That was before Landy was brutally murdered in the home Tenile, Nicole and Landy shared. Tenile fled to Nathan's house upset and distraught. But Nathan had his own secrets from that night that left him covered in blood. Nathan was accused of Landy's murder but never arrested. He left town and Landy's murder went unsolved. But 10 years later a memorial is being held in Landy's honor and everyone comes back to town.

Things have changed a lot in those 10 years. So when Nathan and Nicole come back to town- unresolved feelings surface from this group of friends. This book not only follows the drama of the friendships, but also the hunt to find out who killed Landy and why. But some mysteries are meant to stay just that and this book proves that sometimes it is best to not go digging around in the past.

Things get really twisted really fast in this story and leave you guessing at just who did kill Landy. Unfortunately, this book ends on a even bigger cliffhanger. There are a few story lines that need to be tied up, which leaves you wanting more.

3.5 stars!
