The Disappearance of Emily Marr by Louise Candlish
4.0
I really enjoyed The Sudden Departure of the Frasers by Louise Candlish, and for some reason thought it was her only novel. Happy surprise, then, when I discovered such was not the case and I could continue with The Disappearance of Emily Marr!
The story is a sort of light mystery, where there is no gore or violence, but plenty to speculate about. Candlish offers one twist after another, both of the big ones I did not see coming.
The multiple viewpoints, and the setting, shifting from a posh street in London to a holiday town in France, and the jump from past to present kept the story moving at a fast pace and me turning pages.
The ending felt a little rushed, but overall, definitely an engaging, well-written and plotted read. I look forward more of Candlish's books in my reading future!
