Mina's my best friend. Even though she moved away after eighth grade, we've kept in touch. We've spent part of every summer together since. I have to admit, though, I love her even more since she had me introduced to Forest Logan, the sexiest guy I've ever seen. Mina lives in a fairly small town, so the fact that two women have gone missing in the past year is a little worrisome. It's even more worrisome when a third girl goes missing, only weeks after the second. I anticipated a vacation filled with bars, booze, and boys. Instead, it looks like I might just be getting one filled with murder.
