The Hook:
Aarav’s mother disappeared ten years
ago and was never found. Now, as memories
resurface from the night she vanished, Aarav
is determined to uncover the truth of what happened
that night.
My Impressions:
With memorable characters and stylish narration,
this book makes for an excellent weekend read.
Each revelation spurred me on until I finished
reading the book in a single sitting.
Aarav makes an entertaining protagonist,
lending a certain sense of humor to the
dark themes of the book. The other characters
were memorable and distinct, and while there
was plenty of suspense, the pervasive feeling
the book evoked was tragedy. Aarav’s
mother is rendered with such humanity, it’s
impossible as a reader not to feel the
acute loss of her.
I highly recommend this book to mystery
fans. It’s a quick read, and impossible to
put down before the end.
Happy Reading!
