Y, tú, ¿seguro que quieres conocer toda la verdad sobre lo que sucedió en Monteperdido?
Ana y Lucía, dos amigas de once años, vecinas de un pueblo de los Pirineos, salen del colegio y se dirigen a sus casas. Nunca llegan a su destino. Nadie vuelve a verlas. Cinco años después, entre los restos de un coche accidentado en un desfiladero cercano, aparece el cadáver de un hombre y una adolescente malherida y desorientada. Resulta ser Ana, una de las niñas desaparecidas tiempo atrás. Mientras todo el pueblo intenta asimilar el giro de los acontecimientos, el caso se reabre. ¿Quién es el hombre muerto? ¿Quién estuvo tras el secuestro de las niñas? ¿Seguirá Lucía con vida?

I'm sorry to say but this book didn't work out for me. I liked the premise of the story and it felt in the beginning as this could be a good book. However, the book's story never really truly lifted from the ground, it just plodded along. Since this book is almost 500 pages long did it feel like the story just went on and on and on and not much happened. Two girls went missing and one returned and now every male person in the book is a suspect.

I would say that the first half of the book is the best. Then, my interested started to decline and I started to skim the book to get to the end. Was it worth it, well it was good to get closure. In hindsight should I perhaps stopped reading much much earlier. A hint perhaps was the fact that I never connected with the characters in the book, never felt them come alive. The writing is not at all bad, I was just not moved by the story one bit.

So, I will end this review by saying that I was the wrong reader. Many people like this book and if you do think the premise of the book sounds good, go for it.

I want to thank the publisher for providing me with a free copy through NetGalley for an honest review! ( )
