This book is a minefield of spoilers, so I'll do my best to dodge them as best as possible, but if you're wanting to go in completely blind (as I was graciously allowed to), consider stopping here and finishing reading this review once you've read the book.
As an author, she's clearly found her sweet spot within the genre and found a way to put her unique spin on the kind of stories that can feel stale and washed up when done in a repetitive manner. Kara has always had a way with words, and her plots are tight and gripping without fail, but something about this novel really put her in a top tier category for me. The twists and turns are solid, but the characterization and journey that we go on while reading this book is pretty epic, something I don't typically feel while reading a YA mystery novel. This book is stunning like the glimmer of a slick, sharpened knife. I've seen people wait years to find out what happened to their loved ones, and when they finally do, the answers aren't enough.
