I wasted a week on this book, that is for sure! Everything about it was great, until the last 50 pages when all the questions were answered.
This is a thriller set on a college campus, specifically in a Logic and Reasoning class. Professor Williams opens his 6 week class by informing the class that if they don't find a girl named Polly by the end of the 6 weeks, she will die. It sounds super exciting, and I can't put the book down.
As the book unfolds the class seems to find clues to this mystery everywhere they go. They also find that the mystery they are working on parallels in a mystery of Deanna Ward, a girl that disappeared a few counties over years ago, and was never found. The students think that they have walked into not just a game, but something much more sinister.
The ending is ridiculous. I was actually angry that after all this build up and suspense I am left with this unbelievable ending. I suggest passing on this book. While the bulk of it is very engaging, the way it ends and how the questions are wrapped out falls short of the mark. Its like the author, Will Lavendar worked really hard on the entire book and then at the end just gave up and threw in an ending that didn't make a lot of sense

I hate when that happens! You're having a wonderful time reading this amazing book and then the author goes and ruins it. Thanks for the warning but now I'm curious too how it ends.
