Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker
4.0

This is my first novel by Wendy Walker. This novel alternates between Dr. Abby Winter's third person POV and Cass Tanner's first person POV. Dr. Abby Winter is a FBI psychologist who worked Cass's and Emma's disappearance case three years prior and in present time Cass suddenly appears home without her sister after being gone for three years.
Dr.Winter struggles with not solving this case three years prior and this case hits close to home for her because Abby is certain that Cass's mother is narcissistic and Abby's mother was also narcissistic. Abby desperately wants to believe that daughters of narcissistic mothers can break the cycle of narcissism.
Overall I really enjoyed this novel and I found it a very quick read. From the very beginning, I considered Cass's narrative to be unreliable and cryptic. Walker slowly drew out Cass's secrets until the reader discovered what happened to Emma that night. This novel definitely gave us an entertaining tale about an extremely dysfunctional family. A superb 4 star thriller!
