Linda Keir, Drowning with Others

Andi and Ian Copeland were the "it" couple at Glenlake Academy. Twenty years and one seemingly perfect marriage later, their daughter Cassidy is a senior at the prep school. But when a car is pulled from a lake near campus, the ensuing investigations—both that conducted by the police and the one undertaken as a project by Cassidy's journalism class—rip open old wounds and threaten to expose some long-buried secrets. Andi and Ian have a stake in the proceedings, and their relationship is tested more than it has been since their senior year. The story is punctuated by passages from Andi and Ian's high school journals, from which we get first-person accounts of the events leading up to that car's plunge into the lake. But we're still kept guessing about what happened until close to the end. This book was very readable, and I enjoyed it as a whole, but I found the resolution somewhat unsatisfying.
