All the Pretty People was last week's Free Friday and I love a good mystery so I gave it at try. 


Willow has never been the same since her best friend disappeared one summer while her family was vacationing on an exclusive island. Terrified the same fate would bestow one of her daughters Willow's parents bundled them all up and quickly left the island never to return until ten years later when her youngest daughter decides to get married on the island. 


The main character, Willow, was not my favorite she felt so flat. Her sister goes missing and she manages to stay calm enough to investigate despite having no formal training and supposed PTSD from the disappearance of her best friend years earlier. Drake the other main character lost his sister and gave up the will to live except for finding her. He is described as angry and dangerous but never comes off that way.


Despite the lacking main characters I like the mystery with all the twists and turns as information was slowly revealed. I had a guess between two people at the end on who the killer was and while I did guess right for one of them I appreciate not being able to figure it out easily.
