[Leanne Haynes · Rating 4 out of 5]

The last few books from the Jennie series have been a step above from her earlier amateur status. This story involves a plane crash and a strange cult-like religious campground. There was a lot of discussion about Christianity in this book compared to the others in the series. It definitely seemed as though Jennie was a more mature detective in this book.

I'm so sad that I only have 1 more book in this fun mystery series.

This book is really good! Plot was good and stuff. I didn't like the setting though, or Erick.

[Nattie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very good, but how is somebody who is supposed to be so sharp, so dumb? If I had a $5 bill for every time Jennie opened her big mouth and gave something away; I could stop playing the lottery. KEEP YOUR BIG MOUTH SHUT! STOP LETTING ON THAT YOU KNOW THINGS! STOP BEING SO ARGUMENTIVE AND PLAY IT COOL! STOP BEING SO STOOOOPID! UGH!

I read this series when I was younger. It still surprises me at how the good the mystery was.

The whole time I was screaming "don't drink the cool-aid!"

I felt that this one could have been whittled down by about 1/4.
