(3) YA Readers are introduced to two seemingly discrete story lines: Kayla is desperate to escape poverty and a rough home life with her addict mother; Betsy is terrorized by threatening phone calls. In alternating chapters, each girl narrates her increasingly ominous story. Even if astute readers prematurely figure out the connection, they'll nevertheless enjoy the mounting suspense in this well-plotted mystery.
