Moving from Hawaii, running from some incident that is unclear to the reader, Makani Young has restarted her life with her grandmother in Nebraska. New friends, new job, new boyfriend. Things are going well until students from her high school start being murdered. First the lead of the school play, then the football star, and it continues. Makani’s boyfriend Ollie is thrust into the forefront of the investigation. Makani and Ollie try to clear his name and figure out who is committing the gruesome murders.
Part romance, part slasher-thriller, this book is a slightly odd combination. There are definitely some cheesy parts, but as a reader from Nebraska, there are also some comical parts. Some tense moments make this a good book for the month of October.
