The new gripping novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door

When a beloved wife and mother disappears, a luxurious condo building transforms into a potential crime scene, and the investigation begins: can the detectives find her before it's too late?

Bryden and Sam have it all: thriving careers, a smart apartment in a luxury condominium, supportive friends and a cherished daughter. The perfect life for the perfect couple.

Then Sam receives a call at his office. Bryden – working from home that day – has failed to collect their daughter from daycare. Arriving home with their little girl, he finds his wife’s car in the underground garage. Upstairs in their apartment her laptop is open on the table, her cell phone nearby, her keys in their usual place in the hall.

Except Bryden is nowhere to be seen. It’s as if she just walked out.

How can she have disappeared from her own home? And did she even leave the building at all?

With every minute that passes – and as questions swirl around their community – Bryden and Sam’s past seems a little less perfect, their condominium less safe, their friends, neighbors and relatives no longer quite so reliable . . .

Keeps you guessing all the time

With lots of plot twists, and theories about the end, I definitely enjoyed this read.

Excellent story line, great characters.

This story keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the book. You never can be exactly sure who the antagonist is. The narrator was brilliant as usual.

friends and lovers

Twisted friendships. Attention seeking siblings. Betrayal in every situation. Who knows who? Past are revealed and secrets are exposed.

Amazing!!

There are some authors, two in particular for me, that when they release a book, I pre-order it before even reading the synopsis. Shari Lapena is one of those authors. Her books never disappoint me, they are always attention grabbing and intriguing.
This book was fast paced, with great character development. Everyone was a suspect at some point during the story. The ending was a cliffhanger of sorts. The main story was finished, but were left wondering about one of the main characters and what will happen in her life next. I’m hoping that perhaps this book will be the first in a series that follows the lead detective. 🤞

I liked the twist. The narrator read with perfect emotion. The story definitely kept me interested.
