Mister Death's Blue-Eyed Girls

(2) YA When an unknown gunman kills her friends Cheryl and Bobbi Jo, Nora works through her grief and comes to believe that the assumed murderer, Cheryl's bad-boy ex-boyfriend, is innocent. The present-tense narration provides immediacy in this top-notch coming-of-age mystery. By grounding the circumstances so specifically and convincingly in the 1950s, Hahn emphasizes the universality of growing up and facing death.
