I hate to discourage a first-time author, but this book was just not ready for prime time. The thriller basics were there at the beginning — murdered, defaced high school girl plus intrepid reporter looking for answers — but the story fell apart when it took a huge left turn at the end. The characters were not well developed, the murderer came out of nowhere at about the 60% mark, and the final chapters were ridiculous. I hope Mr. Treon keeps honing his writing skills, but I suggest readers skip this debut novel.
