A husband’s disappearance links two couples in this twisty thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of Local Woman Missing, Mary Kubica
Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend’s house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found.
Lily Scott, Nina’s friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake’s disappearance, especially not Nina. But Nina is out there looking for her husband, and she won’t stop until the truth is discovered.

Reviews
Interesting read. Not too many characters. Some books require an index card to keep track of the characters especially if the story keeps switching stories.

I didn’t like or care about any of the characters. Nothing about this book made sense—there was no character development, no plot buildup, no depth. It felt like random stories and characters, including ‘who done it’ were written down and pulled from a hat. Deeply unsatisfying.
