Claire's sister, Holly, is working at Marthas Vineyard for the summer. Surrounded by millionaires, sun, sea and parties. Sounds perfect right? Holly goes missing and nobody seems bothered - including the police. Can Claire find out what's happened to her?
I did find the pace a bit slow in the first half, but then it picked up. It's set across a dual timeline - Holly's story of what happened that night and Claire in the present day looking for her.
I trusted nobody in Marthas Vineyard. They all seemed like they had something to hide and acted suspiciously. I think I suspected most of the characters for being involved. The twist near the end was a shock. Didn't see it coming and was trying to figure out why, until it was explained.

We are following Claire after she's got a strange text from her Younger sister which she knows isn't from Holly .
we follow Claire to the Island where Holly went.We are following a dual timeline between Claire and Holly. We are seeing what happened up until the days of Holly's disappearance. Whereas Claire is trying to follow the steps in the future of what Holly has been through up until her disapprance. I found that this pacing a little bit slow and it took me until about 50% of the way through the book to get a clear understanding of the story, it felt more like a who did it than thriller for me until that point.
This would be a fantastic holiday book given the characters' attendance at a party and a beach bonfire on Martha's Vineyard. The mystery definitely keeps you on your toes with a cast of characters that are surrounded by situations that make them naturally suspect. While some are foreseeable, the conclusion was unexpected. And sort of depressing as well. The Summer Girl is a must-read if you enjoy psychological thrillers.
