Books like The third twin by Cynthia Jaynes Omololu
Lexi and her identical twin Ava have always played a game that invented a childhood imaginary sister named Alicia, blaming her for mischief and bad luck. Now, as seniors, they pretend Alicia is their cover to flirt with boys who are attractive but off‑limits. The game turns deadly when one of the boys who supposedly dates Alicia is found murdered. Lexi suspects a pattern, and Ava insists following the rules will keep them safe. As a second boy is killed and forensic evidence points to the non‑existent Alicia, Lexi must untangle the mystery before another boy dies, risking that either Ava could be the killer or that Alicia is somehow real.
