Publisher's summary
From award-winning author Mindy McGinnis comes a thrilling and gripping YA mystery about a small town’s past and the secrets unearthed by way of two teen girls—and a podcast. Perfect for fans of Sadie, The Cheerleaders, and A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder.
A lifetime of hard work has put Lydia Chass on track to attend a prestigious journalism program and leave Henley behind—until a school error leaves her a credit short of graduating.
Bristal Jamison has a bad reputation and a foul mouth, but she also needs one more credit to graduate. An unexpected partnership forms as the two remake Lydia’s town history podcast to investigate the Long Stretch of Bad Days—a week when Henley was hit by a tornado, a flash food, as well as its first, only, and unsolved murder.
As their investigation unearths buried secrets, some don’t want them to see the light. When the threats escalate, the girls have to uncover the truth before the dark history of Henley catches up with them.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

A year ago, beloved cheerleader Stella Blackthorn vanished without a trace. Devastated, her younger sister, Iris, launched her own investigation, but all she managed to do was scare off the police’s only lead and earn a stern warning: Once she turns 18, more meddling means prison-level consequences. Then, a year later, the unthinkable happens. Iris’s ex-girlfriend, Heather, goes missing, too—just after dropping the polarizing last episode of her true crime podcast all about Iris’s sister. This time, nothing will stop Iris and her amateur sleuthing agency from solving these disappearances.

What’s happening in Acker’s Gap, West Virginia? Three elderly men are gunned down over their coffee at a local diner, and seemingly half the town is there to witness the act. Still, it happened so fast, and no one seems to have gotten a good look at the shooter. Was it random? Was it connected to the spate of drug violence plaguing poor areas of the country just like Acker’s Gap? Or were Dean Streeter, Shorty McClurg, and Lee Rader targeted somehow?

As Lex starts to put her life back together, she tries to block out what happened the night Tyler died. But there's a secret she hasn't told anyone--a text Tyler sent that could have changed everything.

Quinn Victoria Caine is back in her quirky town of Vienna, Virginia, starting her new life as a bookbinder in her family-owned bookshop. With her trusty German Shephard RBG - Ruff Barker Ginsburg - by her side, what can go wrong? Okay, sure, bumping into her ex Scott or her former high-school nemesis Tricia is a drag. It certainly doesn't help that they’ve acquired the new hobby of shoving their recent engagement in her face every chance they get. But that doesn't mean Quinn wanted to find Tricia dead in the road. So why does half the town think she may have done it?

Class privilege
Mindy writes books with female characters who have strong voices and who tend to face struggles rather than burying them. The main character, Lydia, in this first person tale speaks with a self assured voice from the very beginning, but she builds toward a voice that offers less certainty and more personal insight as the suspense unfolds and as she commits to a relationship with a young women with less money and less privilege than she has. The friendship starts off as self serving for Lydia, but ultimately ends up more real and rewarding than anything she’s experienced so far in her life. To me, the best part about this book, is the space Lydia is able to make between herself and her parents beliefs as well as her recognition that small communities can foster sympathies where there should be none and can nurture the idea that offering understanding is only for the those who have money. This book is definitely a book of suspense but also it’s laced with messages about autonomy, about money protecting people from consequences, and about standing for generosity of spirit when judging others.

Mindy and Brittany both knock it out of the park.
Author and narrator both are in top form here. This novel has moments of drama as well as comedy, and great dialogue. Brittany was the perfect choice for narrator, able to go from one voice to another, inflections too, in no time flat. Plan to check out more from them both.

suspense with laughs
Suspense with laughs:
it was nice to see nods to her past works such as
"5 toed cat Heroine"
"A hero, Heroine I corrected "
such Easter eggs are the showing of a great author becoming a true master... and still, as in many other works, the influence of other masters show through, whether intentionally or not... "Swallow with a click"
the end of the string may not have been the hardest Tale to predict... but the path it took as it unwound was great & full of laughs (once literally laughing until tears came)
"watching as the final sparks settle into coals, and thinking about the cracks of the world, which the unlucky few could fall through."
