Kirsten Green is my best friend.
Kirsten Green has gone missing.
I killed Kirsten Green. Seventeen-year-old Hayley Reynolds is unwanted at home, and an outsider at school. Pushed away by her best friend Kirsten Green, she makes a deliberate, chilling decision – if Kirsten can't belong to her, then she won't belong to anyone...
DI Beverley Samuels has the body of a schoolgirl on her hands – a murder that brings back the hauntingly painful memories of the case she's tried so desperately to forget. There's something deeply disturbing about this crime – and yet with little hard evidence it's up to her to decide who she will believe...

Kristine's Thoughts:
** I received an advanced readers copy from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you!**
I always like to start with the positive so I will mention how much I liked the cover of this book. In fact, it is what drew me to it in the first place. Then I read the synopsis and I knew I had to have it.
Unfortunately...
I found this book so boring that it took me two weeks to get through it. Not only was it boring but it was so ridiculously repetitive. Was Hayley's favourite band New Order? In case that didn't translate well it was my really bad attempt at sarcasm. References to the band were so numerous that I started to hate them just a little.
I didn't like any of the characters. Of course, I wasn't meant to like Hayley but I couldn't even get behind or appreciate the creepy, messed up villain that she was meant to be. DI Beverley Samuels was just as messed up as Hayley and her story was so long winded and dull that it really hurt the bigger picture. The entire thing moved at a snails pace.
In my opinion, even a twist couldn't save this book. It was definitely not for me.
