The Liar Among Us by Bishhal Paull speaks the YA language and is in the middle of their universe. However, the best part of reading the thriller is the story, which has a universal appeal.

You meet Angad Sandhu from a small place in Punjab, a freshman on sports scholarship at the most prestigious and extremely competitive boarding school in India, Valorhouse International. You travel with him to Sikkim, where the school is located in a spooky location. He has come here with a painful secret and a thirst to shed its weight and prove himself. But it seems he is not the only one with baggage dragging them down.
