A fresh and darkly funny 90s murder mystery about one high school's net of lies that begin to unravel when a star lacrosse player winds up dead.

The night before graduation, all of Hancock High celebrates at their school’s annual lock-in. But what starts out as a fun night turns horribly wrong when a body is found—and the victim is none other than Troy Richards, the school’s star lacrosse player. 

Everyone is acting totally clueless. As for suspects? There’s Jennifer (the dream girl), Naomi (the geek), Sassi (the overachiever), and Tatum (the rebel). At a glance, it seems like they couldn’t be more unalike, except for the fact that they all hated Troy (the lax bro) . . . but who wanted him dead? 

From debut author Charlotte Lillie Balogh comes a wickedly sharp take on high school stereotypes, including the boys we love and love to hate: lax bros.

Reviews for Kill the Lax Bro

“Charlotte Lillie Balogh’s debut is utterly impossible to put down (no, really—I tore through it in twenty-four hours). The book’s expertly constructed plot is made even more propulsive by the use of six different narrators, each harboring their own secrets. And I still get goose bumps thinking about how it all ends.” —Jordyn Taylor, USA Today bestselling author of Wicked Darlings and The Revenge Game
