I’m giving it 4/5 stars only because it was scary! But I loved it for sure! At the beginning I was not so sure but, the development of the characters and how you discover their secrets it’s just amazing and creepy for some. Such a page turner.1 person found this helpful

This is a slow-burn mystery and family drama. It’s about families and adjustments after the unthinkable happens. Fifteen year old Ellie Mack disappears without a trace. There is pain, but remarkable strength. There is deception and there is honesty. The book is written in parts, outlining different periods in the story. There is also a big surprise in the story and I didn’t see it coming. There are some twists and turns, some I did see coming.
Normally, I don’t like slow burn mysteries, but I did enjoy this one because of the characters. The characters were fleshed out beautifully and I felt their pain and triumphs.
There were a couple issues that seemed implausible to me, but I got caught up in the story and went with the flow. I very much enjoyed he book.1 person found this helpful
