Skye has been visiting her grandmother after school each day to get her oral history of her family history. When she finds her grandmother dead in her bed, her family is sure that she died of old age. Skye isn't convinced and as usual, she's not afraid to stand her ground. That seems to be getting her in trouble in more ways than one. Her boyfriend is frustrated because she is reluctant to commit to a more serious relationship. She is in trouble with the superintendent because she won't change a student's evaluation to improve his ACT scores, plus a couple of other parents are angry, too. As Skye checks things out further regarding her grandmother's death, someone is pulling more and more pranks on Skye - or maybe, they are trying to keep her from learning the truth that someone in her family is responsible for her grandmother's death.
This is the second in Denise Swanson's Scrumble River series. Once again, this was a fun, quick read. Sometimes Skye is a little too outspoken for me plus her family and the student's families that she deals with seem a little over the top. On the whole, though, I enjoyed the book and I'll probably read the next book soon. I thought this book was a little more enjoyable than the last!
Rating - 4 stars
