This is a good lifetime movie, but I wasn't sure if it deserved a 5 or 6. The movie starts off at two teenaged girls being caught by a masked intruder, then cuts to the previous couple of days, when the girls are happy to celebrate the girl's birthday. Everyone is happy, they seem. Then the aunt is found dead at the end of the party and this begins a whirlwind of strange events for the teenager. The whole film is actually nice but also quite unrealistic in places.

Rachel's Aunt Jenny is murdered and this Lifetime movie spins an interesting plot of why her. Police have no suspects. Rachel is bound and determined to find out what happened to her Aunt Jenny and finds herself in the middle of the mystery that discovers Rachel's not who she thinks she is and neither is her aunt! Quite enjoyable and recommended!

Rachel Collins (Megan Elizabeth Barker) thought she had a perfect life: a beautiful home, doting parents, and a loving boyfriend. But that all changed on her 16th birthday, with her party ending with Rachel finding her aunt Jenny (Crystal Allen) dead in the pool. Rachel is even more shocked when the death is ruled a homicide, as she can't understand why anyone would want to kill her aunt--or why her parents Angela and Spencer (Laurie Fortier and Matthew Pohlkamp) are acting so strangely in the aftermath.

Determined to get some answers, Rachel begins to look into her aunt's murder and discovers more than a few secrets that turn her world upside down.

I was watching thinking that it would be a typical Lifetime mystery drama but as it progresses it becomes really compelling with some fine twist and turns as secrets are unravelled. The Nancy Drew-style investigation by the two amateur sleuths is quite fun. It's a formulaic but well-structured drama about a teenage girl and a whole lot of lies.
