On the evening of April 19, 2013, Samantha and Gianna Rucki disappeared. Two of five children born to David Rucki and Sandra Grazzini-Rucki, the teenage sisters vanished in the midst of their parents divorce.

The girls father, David Rucki, worked tirelessly with law enforcement to search day and night for his two missing daughters, following every lead while raising three remaining children at home. Their mother, Sandra Grazzini-Rucki, used her newfound freedom to vacation around the world, abandoning her children. And as the investigation intensified, catching the attention of the media, Sandra also disappeared.

The Girls Are Gone is the true story of two sisters who went missing, the father who kept searching, and the adults who conspired to keep the truth hidden.

I enjoyed this book, and I would recommend it to my friends who enjoy true crime stories. It's about a couple whose 2 daughters go missing and for almost 3 years there was a struggle/fight, to find those girls. as much as I enjoyed the story, I strongly recommend getting different readers. these people were terrible! Reading so fast that their words became a jumbled mess! It sounded like they were chewing a huge wad of gum at least part of the time. so many mispronounced words that I had to figure out what was said. one of the readers even apologized, several times, so he knew he wasn't reading well.

full of surprises

Riveting, compelling true story that is let down by narration that is rushed, delivered with scant emotion, and marred by repeated sentences and do-overs. Was there even an editor for this project? I can’t believe that the producers let this be produced as it is.

Compelling story; mediocre narration

I’ve listened multiple times and will listen again!
It’s amazing how some reviews are so prejudiced but don’t let ignorance stop you from reading a great book.

I appreciate the authors reading their own book, but in this case I believe this could've benefited from a professional voice artist and some editing. That being said, the story was compelling enough to keep me hooked till the end. The wife's campaign to disrupt justice and keep a father from his children was deplorable. The attorneys that went along with and supported this campaign should be disbarred for obstruction, but surprisingly (or not) one of them is actually aiming for a supreme court position!

Interesting Story not great audio

The case is interesting and the writing isn't terrible. I'd say this is about par with the normal true crime book you'd pick up. The issue I had is the audio version is read by the authors, so their delivery is very monotonous, and it's clearly unedited. It's very, very common to hear the authors repeat sentences at least twice. There was one instance where one sentence was repeated FIVE TIMES. Hell, one time you can clearly hear Michael start to curse or whatever because he couldn't get the passage right before it's cut off. I think you could cut an hr off the time of this book by simply cutting all the repeated passages.

This isn't the authors fault -- unless they *insisted* on reading the book for whatever reason (why authors, why?!) I'm not saying the book is bad or the writing is bad. I'm saying this was terribly edited in audio format and shouldn't be available until these issues are fixed. If you're fine with the authors delivery and them repeating sentences over and over and over and over and over again, go for it.

I was hesitant to purchase this book by reading solely the description but I was very pleasantly surprised once I got started. It is very well written and extremely in depth. The night I started it I stayed up way too late listening to it. I listened every spare second while I was working and at every smoke break I got to take. I finished it in two days. It was well worth the money and I’d recommend to anyone that enjoys true crime.

Awesome true crime story!

Fascinating story. Increasingly compelling. Eventually can't wait to learn that the villains (and they are villains) are dealt with (finally) appropriately. Of course, they are not. Good lesson about the mess we make when we romanticize family. The great weakness (and frustration) of the text is the performance. First, there are repeated editing errors. I lost count of the number of times sentences were repeated. If at all possible, it should be reedited to eliminate those. However, the quality of the reading voices is the weakest element. Both readers mispronounce words and have difficulty with pacing and with precise enunciation. The male voice was very hard for me to listen to; I appreciate vernacular speech and idioms, but not words rushed together and, especially, the absence of clarity of words. Lots and lots of mushiness. Both readers care about the story and the book, which they co-authored. Both needed either more rehearsal or to hire professional readers to truly honor the story they dedicated themselves to ensuring was made public.

Listened to end. Frustrating Reading; Good story

The person reading this book was reading at a very fast pace making it very hard to fully catch all the details.

Good book but read to fast.

This is a very compelling story from start to finish but the narration is tedious. There is no emotion and the two narrators are reading as quickly as they can, sometimes causing me to rewind to catch it all. I'm thankful the story was told but please consider the how important the narration is for the reader who islistening.

Poor Narration

It was a good story but the narration made it almost unbearable at times and hard to follow

Horrible narration!
