Lucy Berberian is back in her hometown of Ocean Crest, New Jersey, while she tries to figure out what to do next in her life. While she is reconnecting with family and friends, she is also working at her parent’s restaurant, Kebab Kitchen. Her high school nemesis, Heather Banks, is now the health inspector, and goes out of her way to make trouble for Lucy. However, after eating at the restaurant’s hummus bar, Heather dies in the parking lot. With business declining and Lucy the prime suspect, Lucy begins to search for answers. What happened to Heather?

This series is off to a good start. Lucy has a great collection of family and friends, although I did feel that her parents could be better fleshed out. We see hints of more here, something I hope is developed further as the series progresses. The mystery is solid with several believable suspects and plenty of secrets. The ending surprised me and kept me turning pages.

NOTE: I received an ARC of this book.

I am enamored with this duo of what they find out. This book is set on the story of Tucker's grandfather. The story is so detailed. You will be pulled into and wanting to know why Tucker comes to ski but he being reckless.

Though the story behind Matthew Rider and his childhood it like pulling teeth from his grandson. The story is deep and you will want to find out why. How Matthew Ryder made the choices he makes. There seem to be secrets and what his father did.

If you are into genealogy and the history of family stories. This book has it. You will be wanting to turn the pages from the first one to the last one. You do not know until the end of the book how all the pieces come together. We also find out who Matthew Ryder is?

The book his written well. The book goes flips between the present day and the past. Though will the duo be able to help solve the family problems and or help Tucker to understand his past. Why is Tucker so intent to find Hidden Run?
