Two girls are abducted. One who returns and one who doesn't. The police launch a massive search. Megan escapes but Nicole is still missing. Other girls are now missing and they are sure the cases are connected. A fast-moving page-turner with shocking final twists. I have read other Donlea books and he keeps the reader guessing with an abundance of potential suspects. Recommended.
This was my 2nd Donlea book (the first being TWENTY YEARS LATER which I loved!). I liked this one well enough but I didn't love it. It has some graphic forensic scenes. It was a bit of a slow burn but picks up as it goes along. There are some twists. I didn't guess the murderer. I'm not sure I buy into the reasoning behind the abductions and murders. It ends abruptly but I think I'm okay with the expectation of what we can conclude. I will certainly read more of this author though.
Feel like I've read this one before by someone else
Didn't care for any of the characters, the story was told in the 'before' and 'after' criteria and I don't like that
The forensic pathologist part was just not interesting and I don't know why he had to put such graphic detail into that part that really had noting to do with the main story
I thought of giving it 3* but decided I didn't like it well enough to give it
