Once again Clayborn nabs all the stars I could possibly give to something she has written.

There is a thoughtfulness to her books, one that makes even the uncomfortable topics or moments feel safe to witness as a reader. This is a love story within a mystery within a behind-the-scenes serial podcast creation, and there’s so much to rave about.

People who have shut others out because of a fame/infamy they never wanted (due to social media and a podcast about their family) find in each other a safe landing space to be their authentic selves, to change plans they’ve superglued themselves to for years.

It is moving and interesting and surprising and sweet and sexy and impossible to put down. Get it, gift it, yell from the rooftops about it: THE OTHER SIDE OF DISAPPEARING is truly a five-star read for fans of love stories, serial podcasts and mysteries, alike.
