This book was excellent; I love a good thriller and this did not disappoint. What I thought was interesting and kept me on my toes while reading is that the story is told in reverse. I really had to stop and think about certain scenes and various flashbacks to keep the story straight, but I never thought that it made the plot hard to follow.
The story starts with Nicolette reluctantly heading home to see her sick father and to help her brother prepare to sell their childhood home. Returning to Cooley Ridge brings back all the painful memories of the disappearance of her best friend, Corinne, who vanished without a trace 10 years ago. However, shortly after she returns home, another local girl, Annaleise Carter, goes missing, and Nicolette discovers that Annaleise had been asking questions about Corinne's case shortly before she disappeared, as well.
If you're in the mood for a good thriller or mystery, you can't go wrong with this one!

Director's Review: "Sent" by Margaret Peterson Haddix
What if we had the ability to go back in time and save all the children who disappeared from history? Virginia Dare, Edward V of England, Prince Richard of York, John Hudson? In this 2nd installment of Haddix's "The Missing" series, Jonah, Chip, Katherine, and Alex are sent back to 15th century England, where they discover that Chip and Alex are actually Edward V and Richard of York, respectively, known to history as the "Princes in the Tower." They have to determine what really happened to Chip and Alex in the original version of history and save them from their fate, then safely get everyone back to the 21st century before it's too late. It's a fun read with an interesting concept that readers will enjoy.
"Sent" is available via inter-library loan from the SCCC Library.
