About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Who killed Brooke Donovan? It’s the biggest mystery of the summer, and everyone in Castle Cove thinks they know what happened. But they're wrong. Two unlikely friends come together to solve the case in this fast-paced, fun, modern Agatha Christie-inspired thriller.

"Part Agatha Christie, part Veronica Mars, and completely entertaining." —Karen M. McManus, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Of Us Is Lying

A PEOPLE MAGAZINE BEST BOOK OF SUMMER

Last summer, Alice Ogilvie’s basketball-star boyfriend Steve dumped her. Then she disappeared for five days. She's not talking, so where she went and what happened to her is the biggest mystery in Castle Cove. Or it was, at least. But now, another one of Steve’s girlfriends has vanished: Brooke Donovan, Alice’s ex-best friend. And it doesn’t look like Brooke will be coming back. . .

Enter Iris Adams, Alice’s tutor. Iris has her own reasons for wanting to disappear, though unlike Alice, she doesn’t have the money or the means. That could be changed by the hefty reward Brooke’s grandmother is offering to anyone who can share information about her granddaughter’s whereabouts. The police are convinced Steve is the culprit, but Alice isn’t so sure, and with Iris on her side, she just might be able to prove her theory.

In order to get the reward and prove Steve’s innocence, they need to figure out who killed Brooke Donovan. And luckily Alice has exactly what they need—the complete works of Agatha Christie. If there’s anyone that can teach the girls how to solve a mystery it’s the master herself. But the town of Castle Cove holds many secrets, and Alice and Iris have no idea how much danger they're about to walk into.

Great bridge to or from Agatha Christie

If you’ve read any Agatha Christie for school, this is a wonderful title that leads YA readers into a modern version of the classic mystery tales. This was a thoroughly enjoyable read, and the resources in the back which refer readers to help regarding common, difficult situations for many teens, is an added bonus. Well done!

I was SO fun.

I love the Christie formula of separating likely suspects and making you sure all are guilty.

Really great book!

I'll read or listen to any age group if I think the book is interesting, but when I purchased this book I didn't realize that it was a young adult book, I actually like Sophie Amoss as a narrator. However, this book is really, really good! It was a great mystery, and showed the way high school really is divided, and how domestic abuse is "real". I truly enjoyed it and if there is a sequel I will definitely purchase it.
