Local Girl Missing
by J.A. Baker
Local Girl Missing was a solid good read for me. 3.5 stars rated up! The book started off really good and then trickled into a slow burn. The ending was really good!
Deborah works in an office setting. She goes missing one day after work. Her colleagues from the office are Merriel, Adrian, Yvonne and Ruth. The story is told from evervone's perspectives. The colleague's portions of the stories are a mix of their personal lives, including some of their past and work experiences. There is also another story that is clearly the past of Sadie and her experiences growing up. With so many stories and perspectives going on at the same time, I found myself having to go back and reread several portions to make sure I was reading the right things. Throughout the whole story, I thought any of the characters could be the kidnapper. The author did a great job developing the characters and jumping from present to past. I thought this book had some twisty turns and suspense. It was a good psychological thriller.
I am so grateful to NetGalley, Boldwood Books and J.A. Baker for the Advanced Readers Copy of this book. I really enjoyed reading this book, which will be available on December 7th.
