About this ebook

'A classic whodunit with a contemporary edge' Cecily Von Ziegesar, praise for The Amateurs

Everyone knows Chelsea Dawson. Day and night, her tens of thousands of followers on Instagram watch her every move. So when she goes missing from the sunny beachside town of Lafayette, it makes headlines.

The police are searching everywhere for her kidnapper, but when eighteen-year-old Seneca Frazier sees Chelsea's picture, she knows instantly who took her. Chelsea looks exactly like her friend Aerin Kelly's murdered sister - and Seneca's own mother, who was killed five years ago.

Seneca's suspicions are confirmed when the killer contacts her, threatening to hurt Chelsea if Seneca goes to the police with what she knows. Seneca makes the only move she can, reaching out to Aerin and Maddox and Madison Wright, her friends from Case Not Closed, an amateur crime-solving community. Together they go to Lafayette to work the case, to save Chelsea, and to bring the killer to justice.

But the killer has a plan of his own. He wants Seneca and her friends in Lafayette, but he wants them to play by his rules. One wrong step could mean the end for Chelsea - or the Amateurs.

The second book in the thrilling new crime series from bestselling author Sara Shepard.

For once I've been generous, I was going to give this 1 star and then upgraded it to 2 at the last minute. The reason being this is the second novel of a series and I haven't read the first so that could be part of the reason I really did not enjoy this book. That said there is an awful lot of talking about what happened in the first book going on which is to the detriment of moving the book forward. Basically Seneca, Aerin, Madison and Maddox are the modern day Scooby Gang and Thomas pops in occassionally to liven things up. None of these characters read as anything other than flat and one-dimensional and the premise that the police would take these teens seriously is ridiculous and the fact they never get warned off "investigating" is palpably laughable. The evil protagonist, Brett or whatever he decides to call himself on any given day, is not the criminal mastermind the team seem to believe he is but rather clumsy and if they had read any crime novel or watched any crime series they would be able to see right through him. I am sure there is a market for this book for the YA audience as a primer to a "proper" crime story but when you consider some of the excellent fiction out there specifically marketed for this age group I am not even so sure about that. I did finish the book but had to grit my teeth to do so and power on through. Honestly, if you are outside the target audience I would seriously recommend giving this one a miss.
