Cooper van Grootel on one of us lying
The New Peacock Series begins on the first day of school after a disturbing blog post run by Simon Kelleher (Mark McKenna) reveals all of Bayview High School’s dirtiest secrets, promising to expose four anonymous students. That list, of course, includes Cooper van Grootel’s Nate, Cooper Clay (Chibuikem Uche), Adelaide “Addy” Prentiss (Annalisa Cochrane), and Bronwyn Rojas (Marian Tejada).
However, the unexpected happens and Simon Kelleher turns up dead. The police believe it was a murder and the drama begins as the four students mentioned earlier including Cooper’s character become the prime suspects.
In this way, One of Us Is Lying combines a murder mystery plot and high school drama to create a remarkably complex plot.
The relationship between the character Cooper, a troubled boy in a complicated situation, and the valedictorian of the 12th grade Bronwyn also attracts the attention of viewers as the story develops.
