Kate Milford's The Thief Knot
The latest book in Milford's Greenglass House universe features a great mix of old and new characters (but works fine as a standalone, since I don’t remember all of them very well). Two girls live in the MOST boring town—because it’s a sanctuary for retired ne'er-do-wells—so of course when they hear about a kidnapping, they decide to investigate, and put a crew together. This makes it sound like a silly romp but Milford and her characters take all this very seriously, and it’s a really satisfying adventure story/mystery. Great friendships, great kids, great depiction of dealing with social anxiety. A/A-.
