Wow, If I Go Missing by Leslie Wolfe is quite a psychological thriller. It kept me on the edge of my seat from the beginning to the end. The plot twists were well written and there were several "wow, I didn't see that coming" moments throughout the story. Readers who enjoy crime stories will enjoy this story that is full of lies, betrayal, and revenge. I certainly will be looking for more books by this author. I was given a copy of the book through NetGalley and was not required to write a positive review. The opinions are my own. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
If you’re reading this, I’ve gone missing.
I close the binder I’ve been writing in, and walk into the living room. As I stare out of the window at your house next door, I think about all the things I stand to lose if someone comes for me. My handsome, loving husband, who has no idea what I’ve done. My family, who have supported me no matter what. This beautiful home near the ocean, where I thought I would be safe.
Everyone says that I’m paranoid, but I just think I’m prepared. My secrets have placed me in terrible danger.
So if the worst happens, this binder contains everything you’ll need to find me, hidden in a place only you could guess. You’ve always known me best of everyone, ever since we were girls. You’ll be able to put the pieces together and uncover the truth.
Only you can find me. But you’ll need to do it fast.
Because if you don’t, all your lies will come to light too…. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

Two friends from high school come back together after a decade apart in a not-so-pleasant reunion.
Alana (married to Daniel) and Chloe (married to Ray) end up being neighbors when Chloe and Ray move into the house next door. This isn't good for Alana -- she used to be in love with Ray and then Chloe stole him away. Alana and Daniel already have some issues going on -- he wants a baby and she is not on board. That's because she has some big secrets and has told him a lot of lies. Will these new neighbors upend everything?
Alana is a 4th grade teacher at a local school and is a champion of the "If I Go Missing" binders -- they are made in order to help police in those critical hours after a disappearance and contain all sorts of pertinent information including passwords to phones and social media. After she's featured in an interview, one of her students goes missing. And then, so does Chloe. Alana is asked to help in the search for the binder that Chloe has made. When Alana finds it, takes photos of the pages, and also steals Chloe's hidden personal diary, she knows she has to find Chloe before the police do. It seems Chloe has some secrets she wants to reveal that will destroy Alana's life.
Drama? Yes. Some crazy off-the-wall twists? Yes. This was hard to put down as it veered wildly off the rails several times. I really didn't care for any of the characters and Alana kept getting on my last nerve. Some of the narrative could have been tightened as it seemed there was a lot of running around angsting on Alana's part. Some convenient coincidences and lucky amateur sleuthing helped develop the plot. I kept reading just wanting to see how this mess turned out. If you like a lot of surprises in a story line, you will probably really enjoy this standalone. Sometimes, though, it seems like authors take a twist too far but perhaps that's just my viewpoint.
Thank you to the author for the e-book to read, review, and recommend. ( )
