This book was ok. I think the fact it is written for a younger audience made it less appealing for me. I didn’t realize it was described as a YA book until after I was almost finished.
Seventeen years ago, three people were murdered at Camp Lost Lake. The prime suspect, Lori, is on the run. Her daughter Raegan wants to know the truth and clear her mother’s name so they can stop hiding. Olivia, the daughter of the Camp’s owners, has just found out her father is not really her biological father. Both girls go to Camp Lost Lake to find answers. As the bodies stack up, long-kept secrets are revealed.
This book is very fast paced and full of action. I finished it in two sittings. I liked that the story took place at a camp because it reminded me of old horror movies growing up. There were some unexpected twists that were clever. My main problem with the story was the interaction and dialogue between the teens. Again, I think that the fact I am older led to my annoyance. I think if I was younger, I wouldn’t have been bothered by the characters as much. I thought that the reasoning behind the murders could have been a bit stronger. The very end of the book was a complete surprise and I felt it could have a bit more explanation. Overall if you are a teen looking for a thriller, I think you will like this book.
