DEAD AND BURIED
Emily Fields leaned back on the chestnut brown leather couch, picking at the
chlorine-dried skin around her thumb. Her old best friends, Aria Montgomery,
Spencer Hastings, and Hanna Marin, sat next to her, sipping Godiva hot
chocolate from striped ceramic mugs. They were all in Spencer’s family’s
media room, which was filled with state-of-the-art electronics, a seven-foot
movie screen, and surround-sound speakers. A large basket of Baked Tostitos
sat on the coffee table, but none of them had touched it.
A woman named Marion Graves was perched on the checkered love seat
across from them, a flattened, folded-up trash bag on her lap. While the girls
were in ratty jeans, cashmere sweats, or, in Aria’s case, a beat-up denim
miniskirt over a pair of tomato red long johns, Marion was in an expensivelooking deep blue wool blazer and matching pleated skirt. Her dark brown
hair shone, and her skin smelled of lavender moisturizer.
“Okay.” Marion smiled at Emily and the others. “Last time we met, I
asked you guys to bring in certain items. Let’s put them all on the coffee
table.”
Emily offered a pink patent leather change purse with a swirly E
monogram on the pocket. Aria reached into her yak-fur tote and pulled out a
creased, yellowed drawing. Hanna tossed out a folded-up piece of paper that
looked like a note. And Spencer carefully laid down a black-and-white
photograph along with a frayed blue rope bracelet. Emily’s eyes filled with
tears—she recognized the bracelet instantly. Ali had made one for each of
them the summer after The Jenna Thing happened.
It was supposed to bind
them together in friendship, to remind them never to tell that they’d been the
ones who’d accidentally blinded Jenna Cavanaugh. Little did they know that
the real Jenna Thing was a secret Ali was keeping from them, not something
they all were keeping from the rest of the world. It turned out that Jenna had
asked Ali to set off the firework and blame it on her stepbrother, Toby. This
fact was one of the many heartbreaking things they’d discovered about Ali
after she’d died.
Emily swallowed hard. The leaden ball that had been lodged in the middle
of her chest since September began to throb.
It was the day after New Year’s. School started again tomorrow, and
Emily prayed this semester would be a little less action-packed than the last.
Practically the minute she and her old friends stepped through Rosewood
Day’s stone archway to start eleventh grade, each had received mysterious
notes from someone known simply as A. At first, they all thought—in
Emily’s case, hoped—that A might be Alison, their long-lost best friend, but
then workers found Ali’s body in a cemented-over hole in Ali’s old backyard.
The notes continued, prying deeper and deeper into their darkest secrets, and
two dizzying months later, they found out that A was Mona Vanderwaal. In
middle school, Mona had been a Fear Factor–obsessed dork who spied on
Emily, Ali, and the others during their regular Friday-night sleepovers, but
once Ali disappeared, Mona transformed into a queen bee—and became
