The twisty, intricate mystery of I Killed Zoe Spanos meets the whip-smart sleuthing of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder in this young adult mystery from acclaimed author Faith Gardner, in which a club of misfits must come together to solve a dangerous high school mystery--and learn to lean on each other all the while.
Posey Spade loves asking questions--it's what's going to make her a fantastic journalist someday. And ever since her best friend and crush chose someone else, Posey's only focusing on her future career.
Unfortunately, she's just moved to the small town of Wild Pines--which doesn't provide a lot of groundbreaking journalism opportunities, only a scrappy AV Club full of self-proclaimed slackers . . . a true misfit club who Posey must somehow inspire to greatness.
She never thought that inspiration would come from the disappearance of the club's beloved sponsor and teacher, Ms. Moses. But as the days tick by with no answers, Posey and the AV Club of amateur sleuths take it upon themselves to dig into the mystery.
From a nepotism scandal to a local cult, Posey learns a lot about her new town. And as she spends more time with the AV Club, she also learns that friendship is just as necessary to solving a mystery as lots of questions. Good thing Posey has both.
But as this unlikely team of student journalists starts asking questions, they uncover dangerous secrets the town of Wild Pines would do anything to keep buried.
- Misfit Found Family: A driven aspiring journalist, a cynical artist, a quiet tech genius, and their reluctant leader. They might not trust each other, but they're all that's standing between their teacher and a dark fate.
- Missing Teacher Mystery: When their beloved club sponsor vanishes without a trace, the students are the only ones who believe it wasn't an accident. But the truth is far more complicated than they could ever imagine.
- Small Town Secrets: Beneath the surface of Wild Pines lies a web of corruption, nepotism scandals, and even a local cult. The closer Posey gets to the truth about Ms. Moses, the more danger she's in.
- Whip-Smart Sleuthing: Perfect for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, this young adult thriller is full of twists, clues, and a race against time to find answers before it's too late.
