The hook:
Mia meets Emily at an audition, and
after doing a seemingly simple favor for her,
winds up as the only person who knows Emily
is missing. When another woman shows up, claiming to be
Emily, Mia suspects something dark is going on, and
sets out to find out what happened to Emily.
My impressions:
This book kept me guessing the whole way
through. While the pacing felt slow at first, it
picked up speed and momentum as it went along.
Mia read quite believably as an average
person in over her head, which is a character
archetype that doesn’t always come off this well.
The further readers get into the tangled mess
of Emily’s disappearance, the harder it will be
to put this book down. While it isn’t a fast
read in my opinion, it makes for a fun reading
experience if you’re the sort of reader who likes
to speculate and form theories about what will
happen next.
I would recommend this to fans of Tana
French and anyone looking for a complex
mystery that gives you plenty to chew on.
Happy Reading!
