About this listen

A novel of psychological suspense about a woman whose life takes a shocking turn when a young girl contacts her, claiming to be her daughter kidnapped in Mexico years earlier, from the New York Times best-selling author of Someone is Watching.

A lifetime ago, every year Carole Shipley looked forward to her wedding anniversary. But then a celebratory trip to Mexico for the occasion with her husband and friends ended in the unsolved kidnapping of her infant daughter, Samantha. Now, 15 years after that horrific time, divorced and isolated, Carole is forced to relive the kidnapping by reporters who call every year on the anniversary of Samantha's disappearance.

However, this year when the phone rings, Carole hears the sweet voice of a girl claiming to be her long-lost daughter. Plunged back into the world of heartbreak, suspicion, and questions that led the case to run cold so many years ago, Carole doesn't know what or whom to believe. But when she starts to figure it out, she finds the answers dangerously close to home.

Great book!!!

I have become a Joy Fielding fan. Her books are about strong women and they keep your interest until the very end. You want to get to the end, but don’t want the book to be over!

Narration was awful!

The story was ok, it was just hard to get past the narration. The whiny weak voice was just so obnoxious and the main character was worse. She let her older daughter walk all over her and treat her like crap and it was so annoying to listen to. No child, or person, should treat another like the eldest daughter treats her mother. It was disgusting and I wanted to reach through the book and backhand her. If the main character were stronger and if the daughter was put in her place, it would have been a much more enjoyable book.

Seriously?

Wow. The people in this book are so terrible to each other!!! I mean mainly one person in the book is terrible to everyone else but still when it came today and it just made so much more sense because these people are family?

would NEVER, EVER leave my kids alone

WOW! What a book. What a story.

I one for one would NEVER, EVER leave my kids alone, no matter what my husband said.

Not a spoiler, but no sex trafficking or abuse, which is what I was worried about.

I was torn between hating Caroline for being so mushy and meek and loving her decent into madness. I wanted her to speak out, yell at everyone.
Never in a million years did I think it would all play out like that. I love when a book throws me for a loop.

lived book but hated the character michelle

the over the top controlling brat character Michelle made me want to smack her so bad. the way the mom just allowed her to be rude and disrespectful beyond the norm was insane but the story was hard to put down.

Couldn't stop listening

What made the experience of listening to She's Not There the most enjoyable?

Great performance and storyline. The plot was captivating, to the point where I spent hours at a time listening because I just kept wanting to know what happened next.

What other book might you compare She's Not There to and why?

"Missing person" books are probably my favorite subgenre of mystery novels, because you can get the keep-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat suspense without as much violence and gore as a lot of other mysteries.
