Enjoyable story with twists you don’t see coming

All of the different narrators are fantastic and bring the different characters to life. The perspective of a couple of characters telling the story the way they do (no spoilers) is interesting and different, therefore enjoyable. This also adds to the mystery. Characters are likeable and mystery intriguing. A good read!

Another great book from Gillian McAllister

Good story with plenty of twists and turns. excellent performances and production from Audible. I deliberated between reading or listening to this book but am very happy I chose to listen.

Slow slow start but wow what a story

I started this book really annoyed as I thought it was a waste of my time. Another police story, a cliche of a missing woman and a family that want to get her back. But as the stories intermingle and the time lines cross over, it was amazing.

Very cleverly plotted

I loved McAllister’s previous novel WRONG PLACE WRONG TIME, especially its unusual format, and I am happy to report that her latest book also held plenty of surprises.

22-year-old Olivia has been reported missing by her housemates after texting one of them for help. CCTV footage from a nearby bar shows her entering a blind alley but never coming out. How could she have just vanished into thin air? Things get even more complicated and tangled when the detective tasked with solving Julia’s case encounters an obstacle that will jeopardise her investigation (not giving any more away here). Told through multiple POVs and social media posts from the missing girl herself, this story turned into a hell of a tangle before the threads finally started to unravel and reveal their secrets.

Admittedly, it took me a while to get into the flow of the story, and even though the audiobook version was brilliantly narrated, it probably wasn’t the best format for me, as I missed a few vital clues along the way and was a bit slow to catch on. But once I did, I realised how cleverly plotted this story really was! There was one point in the book where I just stood there, mouth agape, as all the cogs slotted into place – WHAAAAAT???? It was like unwrapping a massive pass-the-parcel and finding you are finally holding that one crucial piece of information that upends all you have believed so far.

With flawed and yet complex, enigmatic characters McAllister again explores the length parents will go to to protect their children, whilst delivering one heck of a thriller. I love mysteries that can blindside me, and this one certainly did. I love McAllister’s writing and can’t wait to see what she will come up with next.

Not for me

I eagerly pre purchased this book based on my enjoyment of other books by GM. I was disappointed to dislike this book so much. I wanted to quit it very early on but listened at 1.3 speed to get through to the end.
I would still purchase a future book because I really enjoyed previous ones.
