Book Review:

I gave this book 4 stars. I really enjoyed reading this book. At first near the beginning, I was worried that this book was going to be like Gone Girl. I didn’t like Gone Girl. I am so glad that it wasn’t.

This book is about a mother who went missing and no one knows where she is. All eyes turn to her husband. Even the three children from this couple are divided. The woman’s sister has always disliked the husband and has no doubt in her mind that he did something to her.

The law can’t do anything because there isn’t any proof that he was involved even though his mistress moves in after a year the mother has been missing. 18 years later they find her skull but again there isn’t enough proof that he did anything.

This story is so captivating that you don’t want to put it down. So much happens in the story between the kids, their aunt and the father. You will have to read this book to understand. Unfortunately, because of what has happened the family has problems and there really isn’t much left of it. The oldest son has always stood by his father and then again, he was gone must of the time since she disappeared when he was in college. The daughter went back and forth with believing he did something and then believing he didn’t. The middle child always believed his father did something and blames him for the way his life turned out.
