Two women haunted by their sisters' unsolved disappearances band together in this captivating mystery from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of All Good People Here and host of the #1 true crime podcast Crime Junkie.Nicole “Nic” Monroe is in a rut. At twenty-four, she lives alone in a dinky apartment in her hometown of Mishawaka, Indiana, she’s just gotten a DWI, and she works the same dead-end job she’s been working since high school, a job she only has because her boss is a family friend and feels sorry for her. Everyone has felt sorry for her for the last seven years—since the day her older sister, Kasey, vanished without a trace.On the night Kasey went missing, her car was found over a hundred miles from home. The driver’s door was open and her purse was untouched in the seat next to it. The only real clue in her disappearance was Jules Connor, another young woman from the same area who disappeared in the same way, two weeks earlier. But with so little for the police to go on, both their cases eventually went cold.Nic wants nothing more than to move on—from her sister’s disappearance and the state it’s left her in. But then one day, Jules’s sister, Jenna Connor, walks into her life and offers Nic something she hasn’t felt in a long hope. What follows is a gripping tale of two sisters who will do anything to find their missing halves, even if it means destroying everything they’ve ever known.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book in exchange for honest feedback.
After reading Flowers’ debut book I could see the making of a good storyteller but in THIS book she proves she has it. The book is gripping from the first sentence and it never lets you go. The chapters read quickly but intriguing so it’s really hard to find a place to put it down. There’s also not a lot of extra background to the story.
I find a lot of thrillers try to bog down the storyline by throwing in plot points that end up not mattering to the story but in this book the focus is on the search for the missing sisters.
The ending is wild. I think I told my husband I had figured out this book at least 3 different times and that was a lot because the ending of this book was not something I foresaw. It does end kind of abruptly; I think an epilogue would have been nice, but then again maybe the ending wouldn’t have had the same impact.
Either way, this is a solid 4.5 stars and I’m already restless for book 3!
