Under This Red Rock
by Mindy McGinnis
A psychological mystery about a girl who is dealing with the death of her brother and feels like she can see and hear ghosts.... and has become the number one suspect in her new coworker's murder. Neely can see ghosts, she's haunted by them, from the little girl under her bed to the man in her closet... and now to her brother who has recently died. Her family has a history of mental illness and when her brother committed suicide, Neely is still reeling from everything. She decides to take a new job as a tour guide in the caverns of Ohio, it'll help keep the ghosts away. There she meets Mila, a gorgeous, strong, and kind coworker who becomes close to her. Yet one day Neely's hallucinations escalate at a staff party after she takes some drugs... only to then find Mila's brutally murdered body. Now Neely is the number one suspect but her memory is vague and her grip on reality is tenuous at best. She has to figure out who the truly killer is, even if it means its her. This was such a unique murder mystery because our narrator is so unreliable and her grip on reality is slipping. She barely knows whats going on and she can't be relied on to give an accurate account, which only makes the mystery so much more fun to try and figure out. I loved how odd and weird this one was, and the mystery was a fun one. Definitely recommend for fans of mystery books with unreliable narrators!
