Unmissing by Minka Kent

Unmissing is a fast-paced thriller with twists to keep you reading all the way through the epilogue.

Merritt and Luca Coletto's idyllic life is interrupted by the sudden appearance of Lydia Coletto - Luca's first wife who has been missing for ten years and was presumed dead. Lydia hasn't gone to the police yet, and needs Luca and Merritt's help setting up her new life. Merritt, 9 months pregnant with their second child, wants to protect her family and fears Lydia could destroy the dream life and promising future she and Luca have worked to build.

The novel is told in fast-paced, short chapters that alternate between Merritt and Lydia's point of view. The story may not always stay grounded in realism, but the twists will keep you reading! Recommended for fans of thrillers and domestic suspense. – Diana F.
