Missing Clarissa
by Ripley Jones
*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*
Another addition to the popular trend of murders-solved-in-a-podcast format, MISSING CLARISSA follows two friends as they attempt to get an A in a journalism class (then solved the murder) by creating a podcast investigating the famous case of Clarissa Campbell-- a 1999 high school graduate who suddenly disappeared during a party. As the story unravels, Cam and Blair discover that Clarissa's disappearance was not just a singular occurance, but acted more like ripples in a pond and the small Washington community they live in still feels the effects.
The plot was somewhat predictable, but well paced and engaging. It was difficult, especially at first, to follow the writing because it's written so fluidly between points of view-- I had a hard time getting a grasp of the two main characters and understanding who they were as individuals. But over time, I was finally able to follow a bit easier.
MISSING CLARISSA is a perfect spring read for fans of Sadie or Good Girl's Guide to Murder!
