"Part Agatha Christie, part Veronica Mars, and completely entertaining." —Karen M. McManus, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Of Us Is Lying

A PEOPLE MAGAZINE BEST BOOK OF SUMMER

Last summer, Alice Ogilvie’s basketball-star boyfriend Steve dumped her. Then she disappeared for five days. She's not talking, so where she went and what happened to her is the biggest mystery in Castle Cove. Or it was, at least. But now, another one of Steve’s girlfriends has vanished: Brooke Donovan, Alice’s ex–best friend. And it doesn’t look like Brooke will be coming back. . .

Enter Iris Adams, Alice’s tutor. Iris has her own reasons for wanting to disappear, though unlike Alice, she doesn’t have the money or the means. That could be changed by the hefty reward Brooke’s grandmother is offering to anyone who can share information about her granddaughter’s whereabouts. The police are convinced Steve is the culprit, but Alice isn’t so sure, and with Iris on her side, she just might be able to prove her theory.

In order to get the reward and prove Steve’s innocence, they need to figure out who killed Brooke Donovan. And luckily Alice has exactly what they need—the complete works of Agatha Christie. If there’s anyone that can teach the girls how to solve a mystery it’s the master herself. But the town of Castle Cove holds many secrets, and Alice and Iris have no idea how much danger they're about to walk into.

AMAZING

great modern-day detective story!

As a huge fan of Agatha Christie, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. It had all the twist and turns of a classic mystery/ Who did it novel. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys mysteries.

Nice twist at the end!

Great presentation and story! I was prepared to get some corniness with a high school story but was happily surprised. I want to read the next one!

This was a Fun Read

Enjoyed this title and the ode to Agatha Christie style of mystery. Kept me engaged and I didn’t loose interest.

Awesome read

Highly enjoyable book. Couldn’t stop listening. Had to get to the end. Would listen again.

I was SO fun.

I love the Christie formula of separating likely suspects and making you sure all are guilty.

Super Sleuths!

I loved this book! Suspense, drama, sadness, humor, HS stupidness, dynamic characters! Hale to Glasgow and Lawson for crafting a tight storyline! This will be a hit in n my HS Indiana Rosie shelf!

Great bridge to or from Agatha Christie

If you’ve read any Agatha Christie for school, this is a wonderful title that leads YA readers into a modern version of the classic mystery tales. This was a thoroughly enjoyable read, and the resources in the back which refer readers to help regarding common, difficult situations for many teens, is an added bonus. Well done!

Thrilling!! Fun!! Edge of your seat

Not only did the narrators nail their characters, this story/plot was spot on for plot twists! As soon as you would be convinced, here came another crazy twist! I loved all the excitement and the detailed scenes were short and bittersweet. I tend to like to skip through certain pages but this book I didn’t even want to skip a word. Definitely a really good read for our cranes and he loves. And of course, there’s always going to be a love story gone bad.
