Review: Pedestrian effort that yields little to the reader.

Gibbons book is transparent from the beginning. The characters are thinly developed, the dialogue clunky and forced.  There is no mystery here - eighth graders would figure out the 'who-dunit' in the first 100 pages.  "This happened, then that happened, then he said this and I said that" - the narrative is choppy and obvious.  If this is a first book, perhaps Ms. Gibbons can develop her craft - but she has a long way to go....
