Invisible Girl

A Novel

By: Lisa Jewell

Narrated by: Donna Banya, Katherine Kelly, Connor Swindells

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone returns with an “edge-of-your-seat thriller” (USA TODAY) about a young woman’s disappearance and a group of strangers whose lives intersect in its wake.

Young Saffyre Maddox spent three years under the care of renowned child psychologist Roan Fours. When Dr. Fours decides their sessions should end, Saffyre feels abandoned. She begins looking for ways to connect with him, from waiting outside his office to walking through his neighborhood late at night. She soon learns more than she ever wanted to about Roan and his deceptively perfect family life. On a chilly Valentine’s night, Saffyre disappears, taking any secrets she has learned with her.

Owen Pick’s life is falling apart. In his thirties and living in his aunt’s spare bedroom, he has just been suspended from his job as a teacher after accusations of sexual misconduct—accusations he strongly denies. Searching for professional advice online, he is inadvertently sucked into the dark world of incel forums, where he meets a charismatic and mysterious figure.

Owen lives across the street from the Fours family. The Fours have a bad feeling about their neighbor; Owen is a bit creepy and their teenaged daughter swears he followed her home from the train station one night. Could Owen be responsible? What happened to the beautiful missing Saffyre, and does her disappearance truly connect them all?

Evocative, vivid, and unputdownable, Lisa Jewell’s latest thriller is another “haunting, atmospheric, stay-up-way-too-late read” (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author).

Critic reviews

"The narrators' skill with U.K. regional accents makes it easy to follow who's speaking, and their mastery of tone and pitch . . . evoke[s] high drama."

Sooooo good! Don’t think about it just give up the credit already!

Loved it. Loved the pace, the build of suspension, the characters, the ending!! Yep it was a win in my book.

Lisa Jewell is my favorite

Another imaginative Lisa Jewell novel with several complex characters. It was suspenseful at times and kept me guessing.

So good

I very rarely write reviews but I just loved this book. I’m a thriller and mystery junkie but this book showed a human side and made me really think about how we judge people.

Great

Loved it. Great character development, plot, suspense, and narration. All very engrossing. I couldn't stop.

A smart 'Six Degrees of Separation" story.

I was a little unsure in the beginning, but the more I listened, the better it got. The narration was really good, which definitely can make or break a story. I could see the characters in my mind. The story connects the characters in a very smart way. I don't like to give details about a story in a review (hate spoilers), so I'll simply say the book is a good read/listen. I was not at all disappointed in the ending as mentioned in a few reviews.
