Well, in this story we have three teenage friends: Kacey, Bailey and Jade. Kacey is new in town and is devastated to learn that Bailey has disappeared and is presumed dead by many of the people in the town she lives in, but worst of all is when Kacey starts being considered a suspect in the investigation.
I listened to the audiobook so to me it seemed like the book had different narrators but after reading some reviews it appears that Kacey was the main narrator and some sections of the book consisted of another character's diary.
The story is more character than plot driven and describes the dark dynamics of teenage friendships.
After I finished, I wished the characters would've had more depth and that the motivation for the murder would've been more believable (or less shallow).
Overall, it was ok. I recommend it to readers of YA books and mysteries.
FINAL NOTE: I recommend you read this book instead of listening to the audiobook, I browsed the first chapters on the kindle and you will get more from the book by reading the ebook/paper format.

Yeah I agree that the reasons for the murder are shallow, but darn! That's was dark still for me! Have you tried the author's YA trilogy? :)

Nice review Carol, I'm an audiobook listener so I always like to see recommendation or warnings to stay away :-)
