Review
A very fast-paced intriguing mystery that has a main character who loves Nancy Drew and is a little like Veronica Mars. One day during a football game Senior Millie starts to create a list of the people who would like to see the Head Football coach dead. One of those suspects is a very hot quarterback with a past. As Millie tries to figure out who the murderer is she also mourns her mother who died of cancer,tries to protect her father who is also a suspect and falls in love with the hot quarterback with a past. Fantaskey creates some great characters to help Millie find who did the murders including a very important endearing character who just happens to be a librarian. The author really knows how to keep you reading and keep you guessing until the very end.
Overall Book Score: excellent
