Summary:
A woman disappears into the dark city night…
Gen is on the verge of a divorce from her cheating
husband. When her sister, Meg, has a convention to attend in the Big
Apple, she invites Gen along to celebrate her newly found freedom. But
the perfect sisters’ getaway quickly goes awry when a tipsy Gen
defiantly throws her wedding ring off the hotel room’s balcony. Then,
wanting some fresh air, she decides to take a late-evening walk alone
and vanishes without a trace.
The investigation that follows
uncovers secrets—and betrayals—between sisters and spouses that will
twist the truth in on itself until nothing is clear.
What really happened to Gen and who, besides Meg, was the last to see her?
My thoughts: This is the first book I’ve read by Courtney Evan Tate and if this one is anything to go by, I will definitely be reading more by her. I could not flip the pages fast enough.
I love domestic dramas and this one is definitely a twisty one for sure. I really think this is one that is best going in as blind as possible and one where you might have to suspend a little bit of belief, but it is fiction and we read for escape, right?
Alternating between a few different points of view and before and after, I found myself quite hooked and I loved how things are revealed, ever so slowly. Nothing is as it seems and just as you think you have a handle on what is going on, something new is revealed to shake it all up. That really kept me guessing and made for quite a thrilling read.
This book is one that you will fly through and I am always one for those types of books, especially now. And I loved how what first appeared to be just a case of a missing woman turned into something so much more…I love complex, multilayered stories! I cannot wait to see what else this author has written. Have you read any of her books?
