Consequences become dire from "summary" of One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus
When you're a teenager, consequences are usually pretty manageable. Grounded for a week, maybe, or a lecture from your parents. But in Bayview, things don't always go according to plan. Sometimes, consequences become dire. Take Addy Prentiss, for example. She thought she was doing the right thing by sharing a secret with her friends. But when that secret gets out, it sets off a chain reaction that no one could have predicted. Suddenly, Addy finds herself at the center of a dangerous game, with no way out in sight. Then there's Maeve Rojas, who never wanted to be a part of any of this. She was content to stay under the radar, keep her head down, and focus on her studies. But when the stakes are raised and the consequences become dire, Maeve is forced to step up and take action. She quickly realizes that in Bayview, you can't escape the consequences of your actions - no matter how hard you try. As the tension mounts and the danger grows, it becomes clear that no one is safe from the fallout. Secrets are exposed, alliances are tested, and friendships are pushed to their breaking points. When consequences become dire, everyone is forced to confront the choices they've made and the people they've become. And in a town like Bayview, where gossip spreads like wildfire and rumors can destroy lives, the consequences of one wrong move can be catastrophic. In the end, the truth always comes out. And when it does, no one is left unscathed. The consequences of their actions will follow them long after the game is over. And in a town where everyone has something to hide, the fallout from their choices may be more than anyone can bear. In Bayview, consequences aren't just a slap on the wrist - they're a matter of life and death.
