![]() ![]() It's murder plot is very straightforward and its essentially about a serial killer terrorizing a town. If your looking for a complex horror novel, this is not the book for you.

As the terror grows closer and the hunt intensifies for the killer. Then, one by one, the students of her small town high school begin to die in a series of gruesome murders, each with increasing and grotesque flair. It's been almost a year since Makani Young came to live with her grandmother in landlocked Nebraska, and she's still adjusting to her new life. ![]() ![]() That was even before the new regulations-it seems sometimes that the students are treated more like criminals. Moss can’t even escape at school-he and his friends are subject to the lack of funds and crumbling infrastructure at West Oakland High, as well as constant intimidation by the resource officer stationed in their halls. And most of all, he wishes he didn’t feel so stuck. But sometimes Moss still wishes he could be someone else-someone without panic attacks, someone whose father was still alive, someone who hadn’t become a rallying point for a community because of one horrible night.

These Truths tells this uniquely American story, beginning in 1492, asking whether the course of events over more than five centuries has proven the nation’s truths, or belied them. But has the nation, and democracy itself, delivered on that promise? The American experiment rests on three ideas-“these truths,” Jefferson called them-political equality, natural rights, and the sovereignty of the people. ![]() Widely hailed for its “sweeping, sobering account of the American past” ( New York Times Book Review), Jill Lepore’s one-volume history of America places truth itself-a devotion to facts, proof, and evidence-at the center of the nation’s history. ![]() In the most ambitious one-volume American history in decades, award-winning historian Jill Lepore offers a magisterial account of the origins and rise of a divided nation. “Nothing short of a masterpiece.”-NPR BooksĪ New York Times and Washington Post Notable Book of the Year ![]() ![]()
