(I think this is Clark?) (You can see the cover at Like Pike, who also recapped this series.) And the guy in the bottom right corner is rocking an incredible red curly mullet. And I remember how it ends, who the murderer is, but we won’t get to that just yet.Ĭan we start with the cover? As is the case with any good high school drama, all of the characters look about 35. There are lots of other characters, and they do typical high school things like going to sporting events and dances. A perfect, pretty blonde girl bites it at the end of the first book, hot computer nerd Michael tries to solve her murder, and he’s joined by the love of his life Jessica (who falls for a probably-gay football player) and his BFF Bubba. So let’s see how much I remember: this is a straight-up murder mystery without the supernatural stuff Pike put in his later books (this one’s (c) 1988). I probably read it (if not the whole thing, then the last book) 3 or 4 times. The Final Friends trilogy was one of my favorite sets of books when I was about 13.
