When I put this on my Wish list I didn't realise it was a YA book- well, so what? It didn't matter at all, in fact I enjoyed this much more than a lot of the "adult" crime novels I read last year.

In brief, Jess & her mother rent a cottage for the summer in her mother's home town where Jess's cousin Freya had committed suicide by falling from a cliff....or did she? Jess believes that it was murder & undertakes to spend her summer finding out exactly what had happened.

This was one of those books that I knew I'd love from the off. Jess was a likeable character & her wisecracks made me smirk on more than one occasion - even when scared & being bullied, her smart mouth ran away with her. All the characters seemed realistic & plausible too, from the bullying Natasha & Darcy who just wants to be popular, to Ryan who thinks he's God's gift.

Jess's solving of Freya's murder moves along at a good pace, fast enough to prevent loss of interest yet not so fast that it implied Jess was some sort of Super Sleuth, things followed a logical progression which kept things real. Even with a reasonably limited number of suspects in play, I was still surprised at the outcome. The tension on the cliff side built beautifully & I would have been far more worried for Jess's welfare had this not been listed as "the First Jess Tennant Mystery"!

All-in-all, I thought it an excellent read & I'll certainly be following up on Jess's adventures as I'm keen to know the history between Dan & Molly :o)
