This page-turning mystery follows the story of a bestselling author who is overcome with grief when his wife goes missing.  If you’re a fan of the author like me, you know that Feeney is the queen of the plot twist.  Feeney created so many twists and turns throughout the narrative, but she tied together all the loose ends beautifully at the end of the book.  If you want to read a mystery that keeps you guessing until the very end, this book is for you!
