This was a solid mystery suspense thriller with interesting characters and a decent plot. I love cold case mysteries so I was curious to see what this would be like.

And it was good. I liked Charlie and Meg - although personally I liked Charlie best. Honestly my biggest issue with this book was the freaking name. Schock Sisters - that c really put me off. It drove me mental every time I saw it written, particularly since one of the Goodreads cover pictures has it written as shock. I kept thinking I'm going mad. Look it's probably a minor thing but it was my biggest issue.

There were no real surprises through this. I guessed pretty early on who was responsible but it was interesting nonetheless. There's a touch of romance between Charlie and JJ but it's a side plot and a minor side plot at that.

I liked the relationship between Meg and Charlie. They always had each others back and it was nice to see they were close with their parents as well. Meg needs to learn to calm down though and not get so attached that it consumes her entire being. I get caring, I don't get whatever she was doing. It was full on with panic attacks. I prefer Charlie's way of doing things with her distance and objectivity.

I can't wait to read the next one but for this one, 4 stars.
