Lelora | 8 comments A friend and I are on the hunt for a book (possibly written for ages around 13-15) about a series of killings around a college campus. It was told in a few points of view, male and female and there may have been a character with the name Tyler.

(SPOILER) In the end it was one of the murdered girl's boyfriend who had killed her and the rest out of jealousy and a twisted possessiveness.

It's not much to go on but that's the gist of what can be remembered. Can't recall the title or author.

Did you read this closer to 2010, or 1978?

It was read around 2006-2008 but the book itself was maybe closer to being written in 1978.

Valerie (valeriekemp) | 274 comments Since you said this is written for ages 13-15, is it possible that this book takes place in a boarding school rather than a college? Or is it not set in America, where the word college doesn't necessarily mean university/after high school?

Lelora | 8 comments Unfortunately, it was set in North America and it was in set in college.

Lelora, I added a few details to the topic header/title, so your book might be recognized from that description alone. Many members only read the headers.

You can update it by clicking the small "edit" link after the topic header. This only works on the full Desktop website - not the Mobile website or app. (On the Mobile website, there's a "Desktop version" link at the bottom of the page.)

- Who are the victims (e.g., college-aged females)?
- Are they killed the same way (e.g., strangled)?
