Maybe the best yet

Sometimes Calloway hits the mark with her mysteries and sometimes she doesn't. This time she definitely does. Cassidy James is asked to help a friend's niece who has been sent to isolated Camp Turnaround where troubled teens are taught to modify their behavior. The camp's name alone should tell you that not everything is as it should be. The niece is able to sneak out an email to her father claiming that one of the camp teachers has been murdered and that the girl's life is now in danger. From there, the action unfolds. This book has a greater variety of characters than usual for a Cassidy James story and they're better developed. Until the end, you can't be exactly sure who the bad guys are and there are two twists that make it worthwhile getting to the end of this book. Also, Cassidy finds a new love interest, which may finally free her from the clutches of on-again-off-again girlfriend Erika. Now, if Calloway would just add a little more spice to the love stories instead of "shying away" at the critical moments, her books would be almost perfection.
