After all, it's a harmless prank, right?

But things don't go according to plan. When one "accident" leads to another, people begin to die. Susan and her friends must face the awful truth: one of them is a killer.

Extremely interesting

This is about some teenagers who try to scare their English teacher into being nicer. It all goes terribly wrong. The author did a good job with character development of each person. I couldn’t stop listening. The narrator did a great job. You won’t regret buying it.

Classic thriller for young adults, updated for '10

I remember reading this book almost 12 years ago in Middle School and falling in love with it. I've looked for it on audible before, and it is finally available. It's truly a great book, and only reminds me the butchery that Hollywood has done to the likes of Lois Duncan. Of special note; this audiobook performance has a few updates that I feel were a little unnecessary to appeal to younger audiences: they mention googling, iPods and other modern references that surely were not even conceived when this book was written in '78. But it is still a great book! Give it a listen!

Unsatisfying Ending :(

The story was great for the most part and had me on the edge of my seat at certain points, but the ending just wasn't entirely satisfying. A certain plot point that I assumed would be resolved with a big reveal seemed to have just been completely forgotten and the question brought up by this plot point is never answered.

Simply Astonashing

Even if you arent the type to like this type of book (which i wasnt), the storytelling, build up, climax, resolution, and narrorator, made this the ULTIMATE BEST BOOK IVE EVER READ.

Fantastic book!!

I loved this book. I had to read it for a banned book project at my school. I don't think it should be banned.I really think of you are looking for an intertaining suspenseful book to take up some extra time this is the book for you.

Very interesting!!

I never got bored when listening to the book, which is what I liked the most. Some of the plot is very guessable, but either way it was still a good listen

Good book/story

Good reader but kind of slow, but really easy to get lost in his voice (no homo).

The ending is a little lacking

To make it short. The story finally revs up to 90 and then never concludes to much of anything. Left with no finish.
