I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

One of my favorite aspects of this book is how realistic the teenagers are. Blair and Cam aren't professional podcasters, nor do they have expert insight into how to solve the twenty-year-old cold case of missing person Clarissa Campbell. They're just two seventeen-year-olds trying to complete a class project; their first attempt at podcasting goes awry, and their insecurities and lack of risk aversion permeate the story. I also love their concept of dating and romance and how to navigate that realm successfully (or, well, not-so-successfully). I'm glad Ripley Jones includes adults in the story, both as sources of information and levity; it creates some variety in perspective that's compelling.

The "villain" is predictable, but I still enjoyed solving the mystery with Blair and Cam.
