ABOUT THE BOOK:
Who are you when no one is watching?
When beloved high school student Lucinda Hayes is found murdered, no one in her sleepy Colorado suburb is untouched – not the boy who loved her too much; not the girl who wanted her perfect life; not the police officer assigned to investigate. In the aftermath of the tragedy, these three unforgettable characters – Cameron, Jade, and Russ – must each confront their darkest secrets in an effort to find solace, the truth, or both.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Danya Kukafka is a graduate of New York University's Gallatin School of Individualized Study. She works as an assistant editor at Riverhead Books. GIRL IN SNOW is her first novel.
MY REVIEW:
Fast paced, attention demanding, one sitting novel - you'll need to make time for this mystery and suspense novel.
Although the plot revolves around the death of a young girl, the story weaves its way via the lenses of characters of Jade, Russ and Cameron.
The book is a quick and easy read and I'm genuinely not sure if this is due to its YA-esk type theme, or if its down to being somewhat underdeveloped writing. I personally am going to give it the benefit of the former, as I genuinely enjoyed reading it.
