In this episode, we cover Chapters 1–9 (Pages 1–145) of Truly Devious by Maureen Johnson. The story shifts between a 1936 kidnapping and murder at Ellingham Academy and present-day student Stevie Bell, a true-crime enthusiast determined to solve the case. As Stevie settles into the academy, the mystery of Truly Devious begins to unfold.
