Publisher's summary

A mother will risk everything to find her missing daughter in this twisty thriller from the author of Girl Gone Mad.

“Sometimes teenagers run away...Give her a few days. She’ll be back.”

That’s what the police tell Jessica Moore when her seventeen-year-old daughter, Wyn, vanishes. All signs point to this being true. But days become weeks. Weeks become months. And Jessica begins to fear the terrible truth - that she may never see her daughter again.

Then, one year later, when all hope seems lost, Jessica gets a flurry of text messages from Wyn that freeze her blood: mom. please help. i think he’s going to kill me. But Wyn’s terrified plea comes with a warning not to call the police. Her kidnapper wears a badge.

As Jessica’s fears are raised again, so are the stakes. Delving into the months leading up to Wyn’s disappearance, Jessica stumbles upon information that could put her own life in danger. With each revelation, the nightmare deepens. Now she must decide just how far she’ll go to bring her daughter home.

Good story

Well thought out, slightly mysterious, and well written story with timeline shift back and forward. I was constantly guessing and changing my mind on what was coming up next but not guessing correctly. Narrated well, I like most stories read by Brittany Presley.

Impressive!

Great narrator, which makes it breaks any audiobook.

As far as the story goes, there was A LOT of pieces that needed to fit together to make this a satisfying conclusion. The author did an excellent job weaving it all together and backtracked just often enough that I didn’t lose track of all the pieces.

Great story


What would you do if your daughter went missing? Jessica faced that horrifying situation when her 17 year-old daughter disappears one day. There are many clues as to why she would take off, and as the story unfolds you see more and more evidence to suggest the reasons. And then one day, a year later Jessica gets a text- “Mom, are you there?” WTH? So, the creepy factor begins. It’s really an interesting story that takes you down one path and then another, until the sad truth is finally unveiled.
And why must everyone who has trauma and tragedy in their lives drink so darn much? I mean, so much you just want to shake them?

So much better than I expected!

I started this book thinking it would be interesting but Oh My Goodness! I couldn’t put it down, I was either listening or reading it on my Kindle because I wanted to know what happened next. I didn’t expect the twists and deceit, I didn’t expect the multiple layers to the story. It was so well written. I highly recommend this book.

Awesome, easy read!

This book at a lot of turns in twists, several places where I thought I knew what was gonna happen, I was wrong. And that’s always a treat. Definitely an easy listen and definitely keeps you awake on a long road trip. Well done!
