The Vanishing Season by Joanna Schaffhausen
5.0
How do you read peoples so well? He would answer that it was easier than anyone believed; people would gladly tell you who they were if you only cared to listen.
This book is officially my favorite book of February.
The story starts off in sort of a "Final Girls" vibe by Riley Sager. But that being said, it is NOTHING like that book.
Ellery (formerly Abigail) was the only surviving victim of the infamous serial killer Coben. The book takes place 14 years from when she was rescued and alternates points of view between her and the FBI agent who rescued her 14 years back.
Ellery for years has been trying to tell the chief of her small town that something is amiss with the missing people in her small town, but no one wants to believe her.
Ellery calls upon the only person she knows can help her, and he comes to assist. It seems like they are working against everything together, logic...superiors, and they try to find just who is commiting these gruesome crimes.
Something I loved throughout this book is the fact that i was 10000% sure I knew who the bad guy was and I was WRONG...
ALSO.... I loved how in depth we get of Ellery and Reeds heads and the psychological thriller parts of this book had me swallowing this book whole in 24 hours.
I cannot wait to read the next book in the series.
"Hope could take you so high, you no longer saw the ground."
