Review Detail

Evie is fifteen years old and lives with her parents in Queens during the 1940s right after the war ended. Everything is going to be perfect now that her Step Dad Joe has come back from the war. But, when Joe begins to get phone calls from people he knew during the war, he decides to take Evie and her Mother down to Florida. At first everything in Florida is great, people are nice and the hotel that they are staying at is comfortable and fancy. But, then Evie meets Peter Coleridge, who knew Joe during the war. Evie soon finds herself falling in love with Peter but, soon things get out of control and Peter ends up dead. Now Evie's parents are the main suspects in the case and it is up to Evie to help but, who does she owe more to her parents or her first love?

Wow, this book was amazing. Throughout the book I was constantly guessing and I loved it like crazy! Evie was a strong independent narrator and I loved reading the story from her prospective! I loved the ending of the book too. I didn't really have any major things that I did not like about the book, for the most part I really enjoyed it!
