![]() ![]() I had forgotten that EEW's first book was a mystery so that her later All Emergencies, Ring Super (an adult mystery) wasn't a new genre. ![]() So what's a girl to do? Years before Veronica Mars avenged Lily Kane, Susan went undercover to prove not only that Colleen was murdered - but also who did it. And everyone believes it to be true, saying Colleen had changed, you've been in NYC, you don't know. ![]() But then Colleen turns up dead of an overdose. She thinks this is made of awesome, because finally she'll be back together with her two best friends, Colleen and Patrick. Susan, a senior in high school, has just returned to Boston after living in NYC for several years. (And, at press time, not only could I not find an image online, but I could not find my digital camera to take my own photo.) As I mentioned in my intro for the week, EEW's first book, and the first book of hers I read, was Friends for Life. ![]()
