This is one of the best investigative mysteries that I have read in a long, long time. Also as an overachieving high schooler myself I saw as lot of myself in Pippa and it was impressive how much respect the author had for her high school protagonists.
I didn't guess the killer but the mystery and glues given by the author all held up in retrospect.
