(3) YA On Washington's Whidbey Island, the Gray quintuplets, including sixteen-year-old Pixie, live next to Henry's wealthy family's vacation home. When Henry's younger stepbrother goes missing, search-and-rescue efforts instead turn up Henry's murdered stepmother. As Pixie and Henry gradually discover the murderer, skeletons tumble out of the closet. The setting is atmospheric, and the narrative, which follows Pixie and Henry in alternating chapters, is suspenseful.
