Deadly Drive, by David Patneaude, is about a girl named Casey Wilde. She is striving on her new basketball team. But she is also striving to find the person who killed er mom in a car crash when Casey was five. In this book, Casey's wish to find the killer comes true. And the truth begins to unravel. Casey is shocked to find out the killer is someone very close to her. I only gave this book two stars because I think that the author focused more on Casey's basketball skills than finding the killer. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves basketball.

The book is called Deadly Drive and it's by David Patneaude. This book is about a girl named Casey Wilde. Her mom got killed in a car accident. Her mom loved and played basketball. Now, Casey wants to follow in her footsteps. Every year on the day her mom died, someone sends a whole bunch of money. Who's sending it? I'm not telling. I felt sad because her mom died. I felt happy because Casey's b-ball team won games. This book was interesting and entertaining. I would totally recommend this book to others.
