Book #6 in 2014

Reconstructing Amelia by Kimberly McCreight.

Kate receives a call at work demanding her daughter be picked up from school immediately, but by the time she arrives (late, as usual), Amanda is dead.  Initially, Amanda's death is ruled a suicide, but then Kate receives some anonymous text messages that suggest Amanda didn't jump off the school roof, she was pushed.  Kate then launches into a new investigation of Amanda's death, discovering things about her daughter that seem unthinkable to Kate.

4.5 stars.  The book was excellent, and almost a 5 star, except for some coincidences at the end which were unbelievable.
