Forget Me Not

A Novel

De: Stacy Willingham

Narrado por: Helen Laser, Karissa Vacker

A pulse-pounding new Southern thriller from the author of the runaway bestseller A Flicker in the Dark.

Twenty-two years ago, Claire Campbell’s older sister, Natalie, disappeared shortly after her eighteenth birthday. Days later, her blood was found in a car, a man was arrested, and the case was swiftly closed. In the decades since, Claire has attempted to forget her traumatic past by moving to the city and climbing the ranks as an investigative journalist... until an unexpected call from her father forces her to come back home and face it all anew.

With the entire summer now looming ahead—a summer spent with nothing to do in her childhood home, with her estranged mother—Claire decides on a whim to accept a seasonal job at Galloway Farm, a muscadine vineyard in coastal South Carolina less than an hour away from where she grew up. At first glance, Galloway is an idyllic escape for Claire. A scenic retreat full of slow-paced nostalgia, as well as a place where her sister seemed truly happy in that last summer before she vanished, it feels like the perfect plan to pass the time. However, as soon as Claire starts to settle in, she stumbles across an old diary written by one of the vineyard's owners, and what at first seems like a story of young rebellion and love turns into something much more sinister as it begins to describe details of various unsolved crimes. As the days stretch on, Claire finds herself becoming more and more secluded as she starts to obsess over the diary's contents… as well as the lingering feeling that her own sister's disappearance may be somehow tied to it all.

Galloway was supposed to be a place to help her move forward, but instead, Claire quickly finds herself immersed in her own dark and dangerous past.

"Reader Vacker does a remarkable job.... Mystery and true crime fans will be drawn in and ultimately satisfied by this complex, tense tale read expertly by a talented narrator."—Booklist on All the Dangerous Things

not that twisty and a bit slow sometimes

Not that twisty and a bit slow sometimes. Ending was bittersweet and satisfying. Narrator was great.

She’s done it again!!

A master of mystery and intrigue, with heart and soul. As usual, Stacy Willingham kept me guessing until the end - I loved the twists and the element of danger and the eerie connections to the past!

Narrator was so good

Loved the story but also the narrator was so good, some twist and turns nothing too shocking but a very good story

Similar story

Was good overall but I feel like I’ve read the same book before. This one had more twists but I zoned out a bit because of the deja vu!

Great story

Loved it. Narration was great, story kept me captivated and wanting to keep listening. I really enjoyed it.

Will keep you guessing until the end!

There’s nothing better than finding out what you’re supposed to when the author plans for it! It’s one of my favorite feelings. The twists keep coming in this one!

The right amount of complication

This was a really good story. I usually work out the details far quicker than most and I wish some stories would keep me guessing. This one added tension right when I needed it. She layered the mystery just perfectly. I would think I was figuring things out and then a new wrinkle would be introduced. Well done. I enjoyed this book and only wish it was longer.

The plot twist was captivating!!

I thought it was an excellent murder mystery!! This book had me listening until I finished!!

Kept me guessing!

Fantastic book that kept me on the edge of my seat! Loved that it wasn’t overly explicit and I could listen with family around.

Not my favorite

I love Stacy Willingham's books. I will pre-order every one. But I could not stand this one. Im not sure if it was the cluelessness of the main character or the narrators voice. I found myself yelling at the character. It was way too slow for me.
