The Night My Sister Went Missing by Carol Plum-Ucci

5.0

In a short book, Carol Plum-Ucci manages to pack quite a punch. She has a strong set of individualized characters, who - through a series of police interviews - paint a picture of a small beach-front town and its secrets in stunning detail. The thing that always gets me about this book is how tightly constructed the narrative is. Everything goes together, starting from the first scene. There's nothing superfluous at all, and the reader is carried along from start to finish logically, but shockingly.
