Publisher's summary

New York Times Best Seller

"Dark and twisty, with white-knuckle tension and jaw-dropping surprises." (Riley Sager, New York Times best-selling author of Home Before Dark)

In this smart and chilling thriller, master of suspense Mary Kubica takes domestic secrets to a whole new level, showing that some people will stop at nothing to keep the truth buried.

People don't just disappear without a trace....

Shelby Tebow is the first to go missing. Not long after, Meredith Dickey and her six-year-old daughter, Delilah, vanish just blocks away from where Shelby was last seen, striking fear into their once-peaceful community. Are these incidents connected? After an elusive search that yields more questions than answers, the case eventually goes cold.

Now, 11 years later, Delilah shockingly returns. Everyone wants to know what happened to her, but no one is prepared for what they'll find....

Look for these other riveting thrillers by Mary Kubica:
The Good Girl
Pretty Baby
Don't You Cry
Every Last Lie
When the Lights Go Out
The Other Mrs.

OMG! This book was Good!

This was a book I couldn’t stop listening to. From beginning to the very end.
It’s my first book from this author and I will definitely try another book by her.

I’m sad now

I downloaded this book on a whim, and I’m so glad I did! This was such a fantastic book!! Usually while listening to a suspense/thriller book-I can pretty much guess where it’s going, who did it, and all that.

THIS BOOK WAS DIFFERENT! I’m so sad I finished it because I want MORE!! Really, I cannot recommend it enough!

Loved it!!

Great story... Even tho you know there is going to be a twist at the end, I didn't see that one coming! I've listened to and loved other books by Mary Kubica so I went to download another one and realized I've purchased them all already.. I hope she keeps them coming!

Great story. Some of the narration..not so much

The book was well written and extremely engaging. I loved the multiple point of views and the story itself. Great ending with great good characters.
The narration wasn’t the best.
Still, I enjoyed the book.

Worth the Credit

I saw a lot of negative reviews. The book was interesting. It takes a bit to invest in the characters but once you do it’s mind blowing.

Dates danced around and confused me but worth it.

This is the second book I have read by this author and I have enjoyed both of them. This book did jump back and forth to different time frames and was a little confusing at first but then everything fell into place. I really didn’t want to put it down and was annoyed that daily things were interfering with my time for finishing the book. Highly recommend.

Wow--a must read/listen

This was an amazing story. A thriller, twists, shock and awe. Live the back and forth narration from different perspectives.
