Book is about nine people receive a list with all their names on it. Seven below 50 and two in retirement. One being a FBI agent takes the lead in figuring out the connection. Turns out the hotel manager, the killer along with the parents of all the list names covered up the murder of the killer’s younger sister in what was supposed to be a friendly challenge to be a part of their childhood pirate club. Premise was good but the writing didn’t hook me.
