Reach for this book when your teen is grappling with the complicated grief of a sudden loss or feeling disillusioned by the social structures around them. It is particularly helpful for those who feel that justice has not been served or who are struggling to find closure in the wake of tragedy. This story follows Neely and Carly as they investigate the year-old murder of Neely's cousin, peeling back the layers of their affluent California community. The book explores heavy emotional themes including shame, guilt, and the fragility of trust. While the plot moves quickly, the heart of the story is about the emotional weight of being left behind and the courage it takes to seek the truth when everyone else has moved on. Due to depictions of drug use and the dark nature of the mystery, it is best suited for older teens aged 14 and up who are ready for a realistic, gritty look at high school life and social hierarchies.
