Camille, a newspaper reporter for a second-string Chicago paper, is dispatched to rural Missouri to cover the case of a missing pre-teen. The residents of Wind Gap, which also happens to be Camille's own hometown, are understandably on edge after another young girl was found murdered only a year prior and Camille, without much of a travel budget, is forced to crash with her estranged and eccentric family. Despite the odd dynamics in both lodging and her own local history, Camille immediately sets to work talking with detectives and local residents for her stories as they all attempt to solve the mystery. I appear to be in the minority in not caring much for this book at all. While the story itself was just mediocre, the more serious problem is that the protagonist was shallow, unlikable, and had a habit of making colossally poor choices.
