The Lying Game

My spouse read this novel and here's her review:

The novel tells an intriguing story that gradually pulls the reader further into the web of lies that entangles four young women who all come from very different backgrounds. They all meet on the first day at Salten (a remote boarding school). Issa was sent there as her mother battles with cancer. Thea was expelled from other schools, acting out to get the attention of her remote parents. Fatima is the daughter of two doctors who are volunteering as medics in Pakistan for one year. Lastly, Kate is the daughter of Ambrose the art teacher. Kate lives locally with her father and half-brother, Luc.

All four girls are now full-grown women making their way in the world. They've moved on from their childhood game of lying. Suddenly a message arrives from Kate, bringing them back to Salten and resurrecting the consequences of their behavior seventeen years before.
A body has been discovered on the beach - but who is it and what happened?
The pace of the book quickens as the story twists and turns. It was hard to put down.
