4.5-Once again I read a book out of my comfort zone and once again I loved it!
Hannah Hall has been married to Owen Michaels for a little more than a year and save for her surly 16 year old stepdaughter, Bailey, her life is pretty golden. So when Owen doesn’t come home from work one night, Hannah and Bailey’s lives are thrown into turmoil. In trying to find out what happened to him, Hannah discovers her husband isn’t who he appears to be and she has to figure out who is trustworthy and who isn’t all while trying to keep Bailey safe.
I loved this book beyond what I ever expected I would. I loved how the story is told both in present day and in the past from most recent events to the first date of Hannah and Owen. I was sucked in from the very beginning because Hannah is so likable and the writing flows beautifully.
I loved the all of the scenery descriptions Laura Dave gave us and I especially liked how unpredictable this was.
I think this is a great mystery for someone who isn’t a big fan of mysteries (me, I’m talking about me) because it doesn’t read like a mystery.
