this book is perfect for people who enjoy YA thrillers that aren't violent or gory. From the title and the premise I expected the story to be darker. This story is just 3 kids who are in the wrong place at the wrong time and now have to try to get themselves out of the mess they didn't create. So not what I expect, but I still enjoyed it. I can always count on Karen M. McManus for a quick thriller read.
