An interesting plot and with varied and likable characters, this book was enjoyable from the start. A definite departure from the books that I normally read but I have to say it was a pleasure read!
Mimi has just left college in NYC on break from both academics as well as the married professor she has been having an affair with. Needless to say things did not end well and she needs to get out of Dodge! She's heading to her fathers lazy summer house in Canada to get away from it all and spend some time with herself to sort things out. Supposedly the house has been empty for the last twenty years but Mimi finds out quite the contrary. Upon her arrival she finds someone else living there, someone pretty cute! Jay and Mimi are fairly close to the same age and they soon find out that is not all they have in common.
A mystery unfolds as someone keeps breaking in and leaving weird things around the house including a dead bird. When the trespasser goes too far and starts stealing things, expensive things, Jay and Mimi know they need to figure out what is going on. As their plan unfolds they have no idea what is in store for them and the secrets revealed will change both their lives forever.
If you like a good mystery with a dose of creepiness this book is for you! I would recommend this book for high schoolers and above. There is nothing more than a few expletives but middle schoolers may get lost in the plot and various narratives.
Overall score: 3.75
