Excellent idea and a nice mystery twist. However, it would have worked so much better if there had been time to get to know and care about the characters. They are pretty blank, all of them (unless you count cliché bully as character development) and so their fates were tragic but not really for who they were, rather how these things would have been tragic for anyone. Like when a stranger has an accident and you feel bad about it, you may even cry, but it's not someone you knew or even loved.
But this was easily one of the quickest reads ever. Very page-turney!

I hope we'll get more character time in the second book so I can learn to like them properly. And then let's not have anything this bad happen to them again, okay?
