Publisher's summary

"Mrs. Cass, we were hoping your son could answer a few questions about the girl who disappeared last night...."

Erika Cass has a perfect family and a perfect life. Until the evening when two detectives show up at her front door.

A high school girl has vanished from Erika's quiet suburban neighborhood. The police suspect the worst - murder. And Erika's teenage son, Liam, was the last person to see the girl alive.

Erika has always sensed something dark and disturbed in her seemingly perfect older child. She wants to believe he's innocent, but as the evidence mounts, she can't deny the truth - Liam may have done the unthinkable.

Now she must ask herself: How far will she go to protect her son?

Excellent listen

I am ridiculously picky when it comes to audiobooks. If it doesn’t catch me within the first two minutes I’m not interested. This is one that definitely peeked my interest from the beginning. Nice little unexpected twist at the end. I also never usually listen to the last three or four minutes of a book. I finished this one out entirely :-)

Better than expected

Really wish people would stop talking about twists in books. It almost ruins books for me.Enough to say this story offers a mystery. The narration is very good.And the characters interesting. Well worth Audible price after buying the Kindle Unlimited offered

The perfect son

Wow!! I didn’t see that ending coming. This was my 6th McFadden book in 2 weeks. All of them have been great.

I think…

This is my favorite so far but I may have said that about all her books that I’ve read. Freida is a fantastic author that keeps your attention at all times. You may think you have the story figured out, but it always takes a different turn. I’m going to read everyone of her books until I have finished all of them. She’s fantastic!!!

Good story

The female narrator had a very annoying voice at times. The story overall was good.

Talk about a plot twist!

Then ending (in my opinion) was unexpected, I gasp! I will say however the epilogue leaves you asking questions, would have liked a more completed version. Overall great book!
