I LOVE Louisiana-set stories when the author knows things about Louisiana, and I especially love them when the author is from Louisiana. This YA thriller is wonderfully done from setting to plot. Oliva does a wonderful job at the misdirection, and I truly had no clue who the murderer was until it was revealed. This is a top-tier YA thriller that anyone should pick up!
