If you're looking for a YA mystery to start off your summer with, this is a great twisty one! Just when you think you have the mystery figured out, something will happen to make you second guess yourself. I also thoroughly enjoyed the references to Agatha Christie, even though I've never read an Agatha Christie book in my life.
That being said, I think it was slightly longer than it needed to be? At times, the story seemed to drag a little. But it all lead to a fun conclusion, one that will definitely keep you on your feet.
