Gone Tonight by Sarah Pekkanen

3.0

A great psychological mystery that I finished in a day. Unfortunately for me it was a bit slow, with not very much going on in the first half of the book.

Ruth gets pregnant with Catherine at 17. She flees her hometown living on the run pregnant and on her own. They move often to keep out of sight from anyone who might have known Ruth.

25 years later Ruth begins a journal to share about why she’s so secretive and protective of her daughter.

I enjoyed the two POV’s and short chapters especially when Ruth was writing in her journal. I just didn’t connect much with it as a thriller. I do recommend it, because it is quite a shocker and unlike anything I’ve ever read.
