I enjoyed this mystery, and think many YA readers will as well. Despite it centering on a missing girl, who is presumed dead, it has many light moments, due to the protagonists' sense of humor.
The main character Pippa is engaging, and believable. She sets out to prove the boy accused of the murder, which took place 5 years earlier is innocent. Her main companion during this, is the suspect's brother, and he is quite likable as well.
She does this through a senior Capstone project, and so it does venture from 1st person (when she is writing it in some chapters) to 3rd person, when the plot moves along.
While some aspects were obvious to me as an adult mystery reader, I think the various mysteries will intrigue, and stump newer mystery readers.
