(4) YA When Corey learns that her best friend, Kyra, has died tragically, she returns to her hometown of Lost Creek, Alaska, after a seventh-month absence. Staying with Kyra's parents, with whom Kyra had a tense relationship, Corey has five days to figure out what really happened. While Nijkamp's introspective sophomore effort has effective flourishes of horror, the writing is ultimately emotionally unconvincing.
