Summary

"Mrs. Cass, we were hoping your son could answer a few questions about the girl who disappeared last night...."

Erika Cass has a perfect family and a perfect life. Until the evening when two detectives show up at her front door.

A high school girl has vanished from Erika's quiet suburban neighborhood. The police suspect the worst - murder. And Erika's teenage son, Liam, was the last person to see the girl alive.

Erika has always sensed something dark and disturbed in her seemingly perfect older child. She wants to believe he's innocent, but as the evidence mounts, she can't deny the truth - Liam may have done the unthinkable.

Now she must ask herself: How far will she go to protect her son?

Good but predictable

I normally don’t guess the endings but guessed the ending about midway but still enjoyed the story. The narration was good and kept me listening.

Twisty and turny

Loved this book - I was surprised and shocked many times. Always a good sign if I try to bore my friends with the details and that is what I did!

the twist

The storyline took a little while to get into, but once it was a parent of the characters, it became very intriguing to know who everyone was

Voices

Some narrators were irritating. There should have been some indication that it was the father.

Kept my attention but predictable

The narration was great - the story was good but predictable. I think more could've been done with it for a twist.

Good story line with a few surprises

Like the story but the narrator was a bit annoying. Not sure why they had to change the voice in parts, it would have worked well with just one consistent narrator
