"Teenage Eulabee and her magnetic best friend, Maria Fabiola, own the streets of Sea Cliff, their foggy oceanside San Francisco neighborhood. They know Sea Cliff's homes and beaches, its hidden corners and eccentric characters--as well as the upscale all-girls' school they attend. One day, walking to school with friends, they witness a horrible act--or do they? Eulabee and Maria Fabiola vehemently disagree on what happened, and their rupture is followed by Maria Fabiola's sudden disappearance--a potential kidnapping that shakes the quiet community and threatens to expose unspoken truths"--

And I know some parents would do that, but the way her parents come across is that they wouldn't do that, so it just struck as untrue to me, and I think those things allowed the plot to get crazier, but just didn't make sense to me as a reader, so I gave this one three stars in the end. But there's definitely elements of just the description of the time and place I really enjoyed.
