About this listen

On the morning she will never forget, suburban teenager Cynthia Archer awakes with a nasty hangover and a feeling she is going to have an even nastier confrontation with her mom and dad. But when she leaves her bedroom, she discovers the house is empty, with no sign of her parents or younger brother Todd. In the blink of an eye, without any explanation, her family has simply disappeared.

Twenty-five years later Cynthia is still haunted by unanswered questions. Were her family murdered? If so, why was she spared? And if they're alive, why did they abandon her in such a cruel way? Now married with a daughter of her own, Cynthia fears that her new family will be taken from her just as her first one was. And so she agrees to take part in a TV documentary revisiting the case, in the hope that somebody somewhere will remember something - or even that her father, mother or brother might finally reach out to her...

Then a letter arrives which makes no sense and yet chills Cynthia to the core. And soon she begins to realise that stirring up the past could be the worst mistake she has ever made.

Amazing!!

The main story takes place in 2008, and I couldn't be happier. The lack of modern technology almost became a mini theme, with pay phones, actual maps, and lots of missed calls on your landline. I loved the nostalgia!

It took me quite a while to connect the two points of view and tie them in with the clues we uncover. A good thriller makes me question every character and their motives, and this is exactly what this book did! Linwood Barclay kept me guessing for so long. While he continues to share clues, we can never be sure if they are truly clues or red herrings.

Just when I thought I was on the right track and feeling quite pleased with my crime-solving skills, another set of revelations hit me. The story had me on the edge of my seat until the very last page. Definitely a must read if you love dark family secrets, unexpected twists, and a have healthy trust-no-one attitude!
