Eddie and Jacob, both 18, and Zoe and Casey, 17, have created a popular show about Los Angeles buildings that are sealed off or partly sealed off to the public. The show is called “We’ll Never Tell” and the teenagers keep their true identities secret as they investigate, search and record what they discover. One of these places is known as the Murder House where a couple died fifty years ago. After they’ve broken into the Murder House and are searching, Jacob is stabbed. The other three freak out and the mystery pulls the police into a twisted investigation that will change everything.
Likes/dislikes: The mystery is interesting. I enjoyed the variety of character personalities. I like how the mystery was revealed.
Language: R for 61 swears and 1 f-word.
Mature Content: PG-13 for implied sex with no details, detailed kissing.
Violence: PG-13 for bloody stabbing, breaking and entering, bloody deaths.
Ethnicity: Jacob is white, Eddie is Chinese American, Zoe is Philippine American and Casey is white.

This is my first book by this author and I do believe I may need to check her others out after reading this one. It was a ride!
I enjoyed the articles included as a part of the story, they lend just a little bit more depth and uniqueness to a story. The ambiance and sense of the group not belonging in the house was fantastic. The house definitely got my imagination and blood pumping. Especially how it appeared inside, frozen in time – if not for the blood stains and disuse, the Valentini’s could walk in at any moment. The interwoven stories of past and present meshed together really well.
That’s the thing with being the victim of a crime. It collapses an entire life down to its violent conclusion. It’s perverse and wrong that victims are remembered for a crime committed by someone else–in my mom’s case, a complete stranger.
My younger self resonated with Casey’s character the most and she was by far my favorite. Casey’s new friendship did feel a little too convenient but then again – stranger things have happened in the wake of a tragedy. Each of the group brings their own unique personality and while eclectic, it works. Most of my friend groups in high school and even now fall into the eclectic mix category. I thoroughly enjoyed all the representation in this book as well – it’s raw, emotional and real. I think that’s the best thing about this group of friends, they feel like real people.
But in reality, there’s no romance in a crime of passion. There’s just the ending of a life, small and quiet, and the broken people who get left behind.
There were several twists in the book that I wasn’t expecting and they were pretty big ones. The synopsis gives us a hint at one secret the characters in the book are hiding from others & it was interesting to see that play out in the book. It was a fast read with shorter action packed chapters and I blew through this book. A big thank you to TBR & Beyond Tours, Wendy Heard & Christy Ottaviano Books/Little, Brown & Company for choosing me to participate in this tour. All opinions are my own. Rounded from 4.5 stars.
