Good murder story with a lot of twists and turns.
Unfortunately the characters fell very flat for me. 
Also some deaths and developments, while suprising had no effect on me as a reader.

Solid story. A very good place to start for teen readers wanting to get into thrillers. Solidly YA (in writing style and content, 13-15yrs I would say is best) but not lacking in darker content and thrill. While not the most twisty mystery, there were still twists and the tension was pretty consistent
