Publisher's summary

In this USA Today best-selling romantic suspense, Claire’s visit to a luxury hotel in Maine awakens repressed memories that undermine all she holds dear.

In 1989, Claire Dellamare disappeared from her own fourth birthday party at the Hotel Tourmaline on the island of Folly Shoals, Maine. She showed up a year later at the same hotel, with a note pinned to her dress but no explanation. Nobody knows where Claire spent that year - and until now, Claire didn’t even know she had ever been missing.

But when Claire returns to the Hotel Tourmaline for a business meeting with her CEO father, disturbing memories begin to surface...despite her parents’ best efforts to keep them forgotten.

Luke Rocco lost his mother under equally mysterious circumstances - at the same time Claire disappeared. After a chance encounter reveals the unlikely link between them, Claire and Luke set out together to uncover the truth about what happened that fateful year.

With flashbacks swimming just beneath her consciousness and a murderer threatening her safety, Claire’s very life depends on unscrambling her past...even if her family refuses to acknowledge it. Someone - maybe everyone - is hiding something from Claire Dellamare, and it will cost her everything to drag the truth out into the light.

A good premise but...

I hate stories where the main character has to be too stupid to live in order to create conflict for the story. The heroine saw a murder, can id the killer, was struck on the back of the head, then wanders around by herself on the edge of a cliff. I gave up at that point & returned the book.

Eh

So many coincidences that it became predictable. It would still have been a good story if about two mysteries weren't included.

Couldn’t quit listening

I lived this book full of surprises! I won’t admit how long I listened to it the last day!

Narration and story trying at times

Rough start w the narrator that sounded as if she was reading a bedtime story to kids. It really got on my nerves at first but I go finally got more used to it. Story itself kind of predictable and silly at times really. Seriously, if someone had tried to kill you three times in just over a weeks time, would you go on a late night stroll by yourself outside. Ridiculous at times and preachy at others. Way better stories and narrations on Audible as this one a bit of a waste of time.

Great listen and read, highly recommend

I am just starting this series and looking forward to the next book. Wonderful mix of faith and mystery

WHO AM I ?

Very good mystery. WHO IS WHO? Like working a jig-saw puzzle. Recommend this book if you like searching for TRUTH.

Good mystery

But. . . The author throws in too much "preachy" stuff for my taste. Lots of praying and going to church. So if you are not a devout Christian, beware. All and all the story is pretty good.
