“Following in the tradition of recent teen crime novels involving missing girls, Sweeney’s (This One's for You, 2023) latest leaves plenty to digest and discuss. In addition to a compelling story, it delivers commentary on themes such as the responsibility of girls in situations of harm and abuse, grief, and girlhood friendships. Full of intrigue and small-town politics, the book holds up a mirror to the realities many girls face in relationships with boys and men.”
