The Night My Sister Went Missing by Carol Plum-Ucci

1.0

The description on the back cover and rave review excerpts made me think this book would be suspenseful, but it was pretty boring. Kurt Carmody is at a party when his younger sister, Casey, is shot by a gun most party-goers thought was a toy. She fell from the pier - or did she dive, being such an athletic prankster? Everyone heard and saw different things, and there are crazy rumors going around about the gun owner, Stacy. The story was too jumbled and didn’t have a clear focus. None of the characters were developed enough to feel anything for. This book should have been drastically shortened and used as a jumping off point (no pun intended) in a longer, different novel.
