In this psychological suspense, Haley's sister Emma had disappeared ten years ago, and no one knows what happened to her until a new piece of evidence is found that renews interest in the case. Haley and her family are desperate to know what happened to Emma. Secrets run deep among the people of Emma's past and connections start to surface when a woman is attacked at an open house in the present.
This was supposed to be a bedtime, read for a few minutes until my eyelids slapped shut, book. It was NOT that. Most nights I had to force myself to turn my Kindle off and go to bed even though I wanted to keep reading to see what happened. It was also intriguing enough where I found myself wanting to read it at other times of the day as well. It's a great whodunnit that makes you constantly think of different scenarios for who could have done it and why and just when you think you have it figured out, the author throws a new piece of information at you that makes you question everything you thought before. I also really enjoyed the dual timelines and piecing together how the past and present connected.
None of the characters were particularly lovable and most had some pretty messed up morals, but I did find myself rooting for Haley and wanted her to get closure on what happened to her sister.
Did I cry? No.
