Now THIS is what I call a murder mystery!!! Holly did such a great job with setting the scene and roping me along for the wild ride that was to come. I didn’t guess this at all — in fact I was so off! I love that I was interested the whole time. Though Pippa was a bit reckless at times, it reminded me that she was just a teen girl taking on a big task. Plus the project logs and little map sketches really added to the finer details. I’m so excited for book 2!
