It's been a while since I devoured a book as fast as I did this one. I was sucked in from page 1 and didn't want to put it down. The perfect psychological thriller, the characters are well-developed and I found myself truly invested in their lives and outcomes. The story follows Rowan, a medical examiner, and her husband Axel, a local detective, who have found that their daughter, Chloe, is missing following a school play, and even more frightening, two of her friends turn up dead at the same time. I couldn't even imagine what it would be like as a mother going through this, with no answers, my daughter missing, and her friends brutally murdered. Written in alternating views, the author builds suspense with each passing chapter, never once giving me even the slightest inkling of who was guilty. I love a thriller that leaves me guessing the entire time and Hannah Morrissey did that masterfully. This is my second Black Harbor book and I can't wait to see what Hannah comes up with next!
