Bryden and Sam are the perfect couple. They have a great marriage, good jobs and live in a luxury condo and they have a beautiful three-year-old daughter called Clara.
When Sam gets a call that Bryden has failed to pick up Clara from daycare. He races from his office to go and pick her up.
When they both return home, Bryden is nowhere to be since but her laptop, her phone and her keys are still there. So where is she? At first, he thinks that she has just popped out. But, if she did, she would have taken her phone and keys. Also, her car is still in the garage. Sam waits hopelessly for her to return home. But how later She still hasn’t returned, and even her siblings do not know where she is. He decides to call the Police.
This is another fantastic, cleverly written thriller from the queen of domestic thrillers. The is a slow evolving story of the disappearance of Bryden. As time goes on. We find that the supposedly perfect marriage is not as it seems and all those involved is hiding their own secrets. The thriller will keep you guessing to the very end. I really enjoyed this thriller with this surprising ending. 5 stars from me.

Shari Lapena keeps the reader on their toes in this twisty domestic thriller. This story includes a cast of characters, each with their own secrets. As the story develops, the charter back stories call into question, who doesn't have a motive to kill Bryden Frost ? Ultimately, the question of "did she love him that much" is answered, and the reader will never see it coming, much like our main character.
