"Mysteries always seem to find their way to you, don't they?" - p. 130

Now THIS is what I call a sequel! It's been a minute since I read the first book in the series, but Holly Jackson does a great job at dropping you back into this small town with more secrets than it can keep. Pip has vowed to attempt to solve a crime again for her safety as well as the safety of those she holds dear; however, as the quote states, mysteries find their way to her doorstep. Connor, one of the kids in her grade, approaches her and begs her to help find his missing brother. Since no one else will help him, she decides she must take on this missing person's case. Jackson carefully lays out the clues for this case as the trial for events in the previous book plays out in the background. I loved the podcast element of this book as well. The ending is a mixed back of emotions but I simply cannot wait to see what Pippa gets up to in the final installment of this series.
