YA
Nebraska transplant and high-school senior Makani Young is still haunted by her past in Hawaii. A series of student murders, however, soon brings her secret to the foreground as the mysterious killer ultimately targets her, too. Perkins's characters are engaging and the suspense is riveting, but gratuitous slasher-gore overwhelms the story.
