2.5

The last mystery thriller of the Bayview trilogy brings back the Murder Club for a new game.
  
This book does retail the first two books and brings back original characters, including Jake's and Simon's storylines, but who aren't the main characters. 
  
It's a bit of a letdown for a final trilogy book. The plot isn't very much and grasps at the first and second books. Characters may be in high school, but don't grow as people or learn much throughout the trilogy.
