(4) YA Thriller fans will devour this complex mystery narrated by seventeen-year-old Peter Blackman, a mathematical genius who suffers from panic disorder. The central crime is exciting but difficult to navigate, particularly as the narration jumps between past and present. Pete's mental illness is uniquely compelling: his unreliable brain holds both the questions and answers for everyone at stake. Those who hang on are in for quite a ride.
