Publisher's summary

From celebrated New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice comes a riveting story of a seaside community shaken by a violent crime and a tragic loss.

Years ago, Beth Lathrop and her sister Kate suffered what they thought would be the worst tragedy of their lives the night both the famous painting Moonlight and their mother were taken. The detective assigned to the case, Conor Reid, swore to protect the sisters from then on.

Beth moved on, throwing herself fully into the art world, running the family gallery, and raising a beautiful daughter with her husband Pete. Kate, instead, retreated into herself and took to the skies as a pilot, always on the run. When Beth is found strangled in her home, and Moonlight goes missing again, Detective Reid can’t help but feel a sense of déjà vu.

Reid immediately suspects Beth’s husband, whose affair is a poorly kept secret. He has an airtight alibi—but he also has a motive, and the evidence seems to point to him. Kate and Reid, along with the sisters’ closest childhood friends, struggle to make sense of Beth’s death, but they only find more questions: Who else would have wanted Beth dead? What’s the significance of Moonlight?

Twenty years ago, Reid vowed to protect Beth and Kate—and he’s failed. Now solving the case is turning into an obsession....

Conclusion of story

I was enjoying the story up till the end, it was unsatisfactory and disappointing. No real conclusion to the story line.

Last Day

Intense but not suspenseful. Well written but relentless. I had a difficult
time developing any rapor with any of the characters.

Disappointing story, little character development

Underwhelming plot reveal moment with under developed characters. The build of this story disappointingly fizzles out about 3/4 of the way in. which leaves readers feeling unsatisfied and asking, "wait, that was all?!".

Sad, tragic and scary

I enjoyed this in the same way I love watching forensic Files and ID channel...It’s tragedy and mystery. But fascinating and makes your mind explore why and how someone can do these things. Loved the way I went from character to character thinking they each were guilty! Great read!
