Still Missing by Chevy Stevens

5.0

WOW! I rarely give 5* to a thriller, but I was completely transfixed by this stunning debut. Annie O’Sullivan is a young real estate agent in a city on Vancouver Island BC, who is abducted from an open house one sunny August Sunday. The story is told in first person, as Annie relays to her psychiatrist what happened to her during her year of captivity. Interspersed with the story of the time she was held prisoner by a psychopathic rapist, is Annie’s story of survival, her efforts at helping the police identify her abductor, and her attempts to rebuild her life and her relationships – with her boyfriend, her best friend, her mother. The ending is a surprise I did not see coming. Tight writing, great story line, an emotional roller coaster. I started it Saturday afternoon and quit reading only when my eyes were so blurry I couldn’t see to read. I picked it up again first thing Sunday morning and kept reading, still in my PJs, until I’d finished it.
