One night three years ago, the Tanner sisters disappeared: 15-year-old Cass and 17-year-old Emma. Three years later Cass returns without her sister, Emma. Her story is one of kidnapping and betrayal, of a mysterious island where the two were held. But to forensic psychiatrist Dr. Abby Winter, something doesn't add up. Looking deep within this dysfunctional family, Dr. Winter uncovers a life where boundaries were violated and a narcissistic parent held sway. And where one sister's return might just be the beginning of the crime.

This book started off fairly slowly but built until it was boiling. I really enjoyed the analysis of the psychological/pathological behaviors at play in this family. It's a mystery but it's also a family drama. It kept me changing my mind as to what I thought had happened. It's certainly not a happy-go-lucky story and I felt a bit drained when it was done but I still really enjoyed this book. The narrator did a fine job.

This family gives new depth to dysfunction

I use audible to cope with traffic and a lot of time in the car. I couldn’t Wait to have to drive some more so I could hear what happened in this book. I though I knew what was going to happen-nope! Caught me completely by surprise over and over until the very end. Highly recommend this book

Loved this story, a really interesting take on a story you think you know. The twists and turns, and small hints in the writing were all magical.

wonderfully frightening

The combination of writing and narrating make this the perfect listen! I had not figured out the mystery until it was revealed at the very end, and the way the story was paced and unraveled made it addictive.

Could not stop listening

This one was all right. I didn't hate the narrator; the story was compelling and made sense; the research into mental health was well-done enough and not totally off the wall (although a bit heavy-handed).

My only complaint is that at about chapter 8, it was a little bit plodding so I skipped to chapter 22, telling myself that I would just check in with it and then go back to chapter 8--this is largely a distress-tolerance problem that I have with mysteries and not the fault of the book at all, but--omg--listening to chapter 22, I didn't hear a single missed beat. Like I literally just listened to the rest of the story from there, and, besides not knowing what happened in St. Bart's with the sunscreen, feel 100% like I got the entire complete story. So, that was a bit of filler there, huh.

ok.
