If the book is Crash Course, which is what I came here to suggest too, I don't think the drowning is necessarily what I would consider a spoiler? It happens a little ways into the book, but it's the mystery that the rest of the book is spent solving. And the blurb for the book mentions a murder.There's also a line about making wanton love in a bowl of wonton soup, to help them remember the definition of the word wanton, if that rings any bells.
You did it! I can’t believe it, Crash Course is the book! Thank you!!!
The teens were prepping for their SAT's I believe, and there's even a mention of how one of them remembers Pennsylvania has 2 nn's. One of the kids was called Brian, and was a popular guy.
The details get fuzzy for me here, however, I believe Brian and his girlfriend go out for a late night boat ride on the lake and one of them drowns, and this starts a weird turn of events.
Would love to find this book!
