  • One year after the disappearance of teenage parents Tallulah and Zach, mystery author moves into a cottage in the same neighborhood. She discovers clues to the disappearance only to realize they mirror what she wrote in her debut novel. Kim, Tallulah's mother has lost all hope and is now raising her grandson, Noah. She has never truly prepared herself for the answers - is her daughter dead or could she still be alive?
  • This book was very engaging and the suspense continues to grow as you discover more details. I expect nothing less from Jewell and this was absolutely perfect. The characters were lovable in some twisted sort of way. The chapters are short and the multiple POV makes it more suspenseful. What is even better is the chemistry between the characters emanate from the book, making each POV equally interesting and engaging.
