Summary
From the bestselling author of In an Instant comes a heartrending story about the power of friendship during the most challenging moments in life.
It’s been eight years since a tragic accident changed Mo Kaminski’s and Chloe Miller’s lives forever. Now in their midtwenties, they’re sharing an apartment in San Francisco and navigating the normal challenges of early adulthood. Along with their roommate, Hazel, they are making their marks on the world - Mo revolutionizing the news with her media start-up, Hazel using her big brain to anticipate the future, and Chloe rescuing abandoned strays in the city.
But when Hazel disappears after being sexually assaulted, Mo’s and Chloe’s lives are again suddenly ripped apart. And when the perpetrator turns up drugged and beaten, the mystery of where Hazel is deepens. Intensely worried and desperate to discover the truth, they set out to find Hazel and bring her home.
Mo and Chloe are no strangers to tragedy, but this journey will test them in ways they never imagined. The stakes are high; the future uncertain; the need for justice essential.
Will their commitment to their friend bring them closer together - or ultimately drive them apart?

Critic reviews
"Readers who enjoy fast-paced novels about perseverance, survival, and friendship will be drawn into Redfearn’s latest.”—Booklist
“In her latest novel, Redfearn tackles a timely, thought-provoking topic with sensitivity and grit. Moment in Time reunites Chloe and Mo (In an Instant) with other familiar cameos on a journey through enduring friendship and life’s greatest challenges. Redfearn fans will devour this one in a single sitting.”—Rochelle B. Weinstein, author of This Is Not How It Ends
“Shining a light on a topic that certainly needs more attention, Suzanne Redfearn’s Moment in Time is a wonderfully told tale that burns brightly with damaged characters climbing out of their own wreckage. Redfearn is such a talent, with very clever ideas, a sly hand at trickery, and an unmistakable voice; her new book is no exception.”—Boo Walker, bestselling author of The Singing Trees

Thought provoking, emotionally intelligent and thoroughly engaging
I loved this. I listened to In An Instant by the same author before and thoroughly enjoyed that and it’s so gratifying when a follow-up is as strong. Some of the characters in that first novel appear in this, but it’s a complete standalone story so if the Me-too movement is of interest to you, and you like great storytelling and plot but character-driven novels are what really rock your world, I’d highly recommend this. Told froM different perspectives, it opens with rape and events spiral out of control from there. It’s not depressing though - far from it. It’s romantic and kept mr hooked from beginning to end.

Wonderful catch up with the girls of IAI
Having loved 'In an Instant' I was delighted to see this book which picks up on the lives of two of the characters some years on. Although the subject matter here is as emotional as in IAI, its a far tougher subject focussing on date rape/GHB. Our three girls (Mo, Chloe and Hazel) are involved in a series of actions following on from Mo's encounter with the perpetrator in a bar. And whilst some of their actions may seem a little extreme and/or unlikely, the book is so well-written that it brings you in to the whole emotional journey with them. Mo and Chloe in particular are superb characters, and whilst you don't have to have read IAI as a prerequisite to this book, it does help with understanding their backstory and relationships with each other, and with Kyle/Chloe's mum etc.
A really compelling read, and terrifying to realise that behaviour such as that displayed by the perpetrator may be very common. Makes me very glad I am not a youngster any more.
The above was my Goodreads review of the original book, but completely relevant for my subsequent listen to Jesse Vilinsky's excellent performance of the audiobook. She really seems to bring the characters to life - a great listen.
