Told in alternating voices, teenagers Lucy and Audrey investigate a town full of secrets, a family full of mystery, and an abandoned amusement park where people keep turning up dead. - Random House, Inc.
KNIVES OUT meets A GOOD GIRLâS GUIDE TO MURDER in Mary E. Roachâs debut YA mystery Better Left Buried, in which two girls try to get to the bottom of a town full of secrets, a family full of mystery and an abandoned amusement park where people keep turning up dead.
Lucy Preston just wants to go on vacation. But being the daughter of a famous private detective means that sometimes, your beach vacay goes off the rails a bit. Think: a clandestine meeting at an abandoned amusement parkâexcept instead of a meeting, Lucy and her mom find a body. Because of course they do.
As Lucyâs mom is swept into top-secret detective stuff, Lucy sets out to investigate her momâs mysterious connection with this town. Lucyâs snooping sets her on a collision course with Audrey Nelson, the mysterious girl on the motorcycle who was there the night they found the body. Lucy has questions, and Audrey has answers, but thereâs this tiny problem: Lucyâs mom is investigating Audreyâs mom . . . for murder.
Everyone has something to hide, and if Lucy and Audrey canât work together to uncover secrets that go back generations, there will likely be another body found at the base of the old roller coaster. And this time it might just be Lucyâs.
Alternating between Lucy and Audreyâs point of view, and filled with suspense as secrets are spilled, Better Left Buried is sure to leave readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.
