Three Days Missing

De: Kimberly Belle

Narrado por: Vanessa Johansson, Sarah Naughton

When a child goes missing, two mothers’ lives collide in a shocking way in this suspenseful novel from the best-selling author of The Marriage Lie.

It’s every parent’s worst nightmare: the call that comes in the middle of the night. When Kat Jenkins awakens to the police on her doorstep, her greatest fear is realized. Her nine-year-old son, Ethan, is missing - vanished from the cabin where he’d been on an overnight class trip. Shocked and distraught, Kat rushes to the campground, but she’s too late; the authorities have returned from their search empty-handed after losing Ethan’s trail in the mountain forest.

Another mother from the school, Stef Huntington, seems like she has it all: money, prominence in the community, a popular son, and a loving husband. She hardly knows Kat, except for the vicious gossip that swirls around Kat’s traumatic past. But as the police investigation unfolds, Ethan’s disappearance has earth-shattering consequences for Stef, as her path crosses with Kat. As the two mothers race against the clock, their desperate search for answers reveals how the greatest dangers lie behind the everyday smiles of those they trust the most.

Reseñas de la Crítica

”Kimberly Belle delivers the goods - a rocket-paced story with a heart that will keep you riveted through every hairpin twist and turn. Breathless suspense!” (Lisa Unger, New York Times best-selling author of The Red Hunter)

Just okay

I kept waiting for this to get exciting, but it never did. I am surprised by the amount of 5 star reviews. I was pretty bored the whole time. Definitely not worth a credit.

Compelling

On an overnight second grade camping trip, Kat’s son Ethan goes missing. Her soon-to-be abusive ex, Andrew, tops the suspect list. The mayor Sam and his wife Stef’s son Sammy, also on the trip, appears to have been the target. Sammy may know more than he’s saying. In a race against time, investigators, the families and friends search for Ethan while the suspect list grows.

THREE DAYS MISSING is an example of a perfect suspense novel. My heart thumped loudly as compelling plot never let up. I can’t remember the last time a thriller actually thrilled me. The imperfect, yet sympathetic characters had me rooting for good outcomes for everyone.

Kimberly Belle has written a breakthrough novel with THREE DAYS MISSING that kept me guessing until the end with no shortage of disproven theories along the way. Even minor characters I had written off as problematic proved to have redeeming qualities by the time the book’s final chapter ended.

THREE DAYS MISSING is a must read.

Great book

This was a great book! It was a little predictable but it was still an enjoyable read.

What a refreshing lesson on forgiveness

This was a very interesting book. The story line was interesting enough to keep me interested, but within the story of a woman suffering when her son disappears, there are words of wisdom. There was no extreme violence, bad language or sex. I’d gladly let my teenage daughter read this books for the life lessons.

You can’t pick what you accept about a person, you have to accept them for the things you like and the things you don’t. (Not a direct quote)

Okay

Story was ok. The narrator was good. I think the story itself could have been better.

Great story, but could've done without some langua

I loved the story but wish some of the bad language was left out. Just don't feel it's necessary. But especially as a mom, this had me on the edge of my seat for sure

Three Long Days Missing

The storyline was good, but could not relate to the main character. The narration could have been much better, especially since the different accent and tones did not carry through.

IPHONE USERS BE CAREFUL! The main character asks Siri to call 911, and my phone called 911.

I love the book, though it was a little everywhere. Please be careful, the main character yells out to Siri, to call 911, and my cellphone called the police.

GOOD STORY, BUT...

I liked this book, but it was not nearly as good as "Dear Wife." "Dear Wife" had twists and turns and surprises that I didn't see coming. "Three Days Missing" was less suspenseful, more predictable. The story kept me interested and listening to the end, but it didn't make me gasp. The hardest thing was that the two main characters were women, and the narrators' voices were so close that I got confused as to who was speaking when. If I wasn't paying close attention ~ and sometimes even when I was because the characters were so similar ~ I had to catch up when I realized I was thinking of the wrong woman. The end tied everything up in a neat little bow, but it wasn't something that surprised me. Not bad, but not great. An entertaining listen.

Narrator

The person who read Steph’s (Mayor’s wife) part is bad. Too clipped. Did not enjoy it.
