The build up was a little slow but once she really gets into the investigations things start flowing. There were obvious predictions I had on who looked good for the missing girls but it could have also gone anywhere which I liked in the beginning. Was able to narrow it down and then it all started connecting. The ending came really quick and was a predictable but some of the people involved did surprise me! Definitely would say this is more of a younger adult mystery book. As someone from Upstate NY and only 4 hrs from Lake George it was nice having that connection! I think it was a good book but could have done some things different to make to great!
