Heather Peters | 18 comments This is a book that our students will love. They will enjoy the twists and turns and the slightly awkward love interest between two of the main characters. It isn't groundbreaking and doesn't get political. It's a COMFORTABLE read. I think I would compare this book to a cozy pair of pajamas on a rainy day - perfectly snug. It is enjoyable and keeps most readers on edge as new information is revealed.
4/5

Brenda Love 4/5 Stars - So many twists and turns! I enjoyed Karen McManus' story of family, greed, and of course murder.

Anne Liebst | 9 comments 4/5 I really enjoy reading Karen McManus books as well. Lots of action and mystery and surprise twists. YAs who like her other books should not miss this one.


Jill Henson | 15 comments 4/5 A fun mystery that I think most teens would enjoy


Allison Covington (allisoncovington) | 4 comments 4/5 I think students will enjoy this book.


Alysa Fenner | 17 comments I enjoyed this book. I read it before school let out, and I honestly don’t remember too many details which isn’t the sign of a memorable book. However, I do remember liking it more than the last book I had read by her and not as much as the first book I read by her. 4/5
