These two sisters have not been on the best of terms lately. Emily has not even met Madeline’s children. But they are sisters, so Emily returns to her family home and the mystery surrounding her accident. Emily and Madeline have a nice catch up session on Emily’s first night home. But, when Emily wakes up the next morning, Madeline is no where to be found. She thinks Madeline just went to the store. When Madeline stays gone for over 24 hours Emily becomes obsessed with finding her. I really don’t know what I think about Emily. I started out not liking her very much. But she becomes a better person as the tale moves along. And move along it does! Just when I had it figured out the story twisted, NOT ONCE BUT SEVERAL TIMES. Emily’s past accident, Paul, Emily’s ex-boyfriend, is the cop assigned to the case, a cryptic message for Madeline, a VHS tape, all lead to a gripping conclusion. This is a lightening fast read. This would be a great book for traveling. And for $2.99, I would snatch this up! It is captivating, suspenseful and very engaging. There were places I forgot to breathe! I received this novel from Harper Impulse and Killer Reads via Netgalley for a honest review. no reviews | add a review

Emily never wanted to go back home. For her, home has too many memories, both those she can remember and those she can’t. When her sister, Madeline, asks her to come visit, she feels like enough time has passed, and she’s ready to face her demons. At first, she’s not sure what she had been so afraid of. Then Madeline disappears in the middle of the night. Desperate to find her sister, Emily is plunged into not only her own secrets, but the secrets of the entire town.
I think my favorite part of this story was how the plot was woven together so delicately with such complex characters. There wasn’t one mystery that was solved in the story, but two. Everyone had a secret, and I loved the way that separate demons worked in such harmony. I honestly didn’t see any of the ending coming. The person who I thought was the villain of the story wasn’t as bad of a person at all.
Gripping from start to finish.
Narration complimented the story well.
