I has it figured out at 6%. Don’t like the characters, couldn’t figure out why she didn’t tell the police everything she knew. Not realistic at all.

I was in the mood for a zippy thriller, and when I saw this was a Read With Jenna pick, I decided to give it a try! It was a quick and easy read, but the characters didn’t really feel like real people and the ending came together too conveniently.

 This thrilling novel, told in dual timelines, finds Nora Davies in a desperate search to locate her husband, Will, who has disappeared after his birthday party. Nora and Will’s love story provides an excellent backdrop that builds tension to a nail biting conclusion. 
I found myself rooting for them to triumph over their challenges including a community that shunned Nora, nefarious business dealings, and questions about what true love really is. Rife with interesting characters, some of whom are likeable and some who are not, this fast based story will keep you guessing. 
Many thanks to NetGalley and Random House/Ballantine for the advance copy. All opinions are my own.
