YA
Friends Ryan and Sarah explore an old gold dredge in their town and discover a dark mystery surrounding a string of accidents. Ryan's journal recounts their adventure and includes passwords to Sarah's videos. The videos (which are posted on the Internet for readers to watch) capture the serialized feel of online storytelling and are more compelling than the book itself, which can ramble.
