PRICK

Taggart McGill Mystery

De: DL Hammons

Narrado por: Elizabeth P. Stevenson

People are dying under mysterious circumstances in the small town of New Haven. And the city’s best hope of uncovering the truth rests with a troubled teen and the girl who can't stand him.

Cassie Underwood’s life is shattered when her younger sister dies in a freak car accident. In her grief, Cassie unfairly blames her sister’s constant companion—Taggart McGill—a boy with a sketchy past and abrasive personality. As Cassie attempts to recover from the loss, she struggles to honor her late-sister’s memory by befriending the person she resents most.

Things get complicated when Cassie overhears a fellow student asking Taggart to convince the police another death in the accident had nothing to do with the crash at all. Taggart surprisingly agrees and a suspicious Cassie decides to accompany him in his snooping. She soon learns everything she knows about Taggart is wrong… and he has insight into things that link the car accident to other suspicious deaths in their close-knit community.

Is Taggart McGill the "prick" everyone says he is, or will uncovering his secrets be the key that keeps Cassie's name off the mounting list of victims?

Entirely underrated

Prick is an edgy Hardy Boys meets Nancy Drew YA mystery. I finished the book in two days because I couldn’t put it down. The characters are well-developed and intriguing. The storyline twists and turns throughout the characters’ investigations, leaving you completely surprised right up until the end. I highly recommend this book to all mystery lovers and even those that just like a good story. Now I’m off to get the next book in the series.

Amazing narration!

The narrator did an amazing job at bringing the book to life! I absolutely loved it!

Great story

I love this series and the narrator helps to make the story come alive! I am picking about southern accents and this book takes place in southern Georgia. The narrator does a great job with just a hint of southern honey in her voice.
