Fast paced with a cast of sketchy characters that make you think it could be any one of them. I figured out the twist about half way through. Lots of red herrings throughout that make you think twice. ( ) Atmosphere, Atmosphere, Atmosphere! I have been a Pike fan since my teens. This little book packs a heck of a demented and creepy punch. Perfect Halloween pick people! The fact is this is YA Mystery but GOOD and QUALITY YA mystery. Quality makes a difference. So too does atmosphere. And man oh man have we atmosphere here. The whole book takes place at a ski lodge with a group of girls. Fire and a bit of Pyromania is thrown in. Nell, Lara, Dana, Rachel..are all alone at this ski lodge. It is the first time all the girls have been together since a tragedy in their past. It is short but really intense. This is a book you read for fun if you want to be a bit creeped out. You will be. It is creepier then many of Pike's earlier stuff. SPOILERS: I knew (SORT OF) where it was going but that does not mean I was not completely creeped out by the whole Eerie premise including the basement scene where some girls are held captive. This was a scary little horror tale...I am a Pike fan, of his early stuff and this one should not be missed. 3.5 stars. no reviews | add a review
