Loved the first one, loved this one, already reading the 3rd one.

This series centers on Stevie, a teenager & aspiring detective who attends a fancy private school up in the mountains in Vermont. She wants to solve a decades-old crime that happened there, but finds herself in the middle of current murders & disappearances.

I liked the same things in this one that I did in the first - the mystery is good! I don't guess what's coming and there's parts where I'm on the edge of my seat. At the same time, there's wonderfully normal teenage moments that make me laugh, or cringe a little, because teenage years can be awkward, am I right?!

All in all, highly recommend - especially if you like YA & mysteries!
