Synopsis
Author Grady Green is having the worst best day of his life.
Grady calls his wife to share some exciting news as she is driving home. He hears Abby slam on the brakes, get out of the car, then nothing. When he eventually finds her car by the cliff edge the headlights are on, the driver door is open, her phone is still there. . . but his wife has disappeared.
A year later, Grady is still overcome with grief and desperate to know what happened to Abby. He can’t sleep, and he can’t write, so he travels to a tiny Scottish island to try to get his life back on track. Then he sees the impossible – a woman who looks exactly like his missing wife.
Thoughts:
I was head over heels excited when I got approved for this audio, just so excited. Alice Feeney is and has always been one of my favorite thriller authors. I feel like each book she writes only gets better, and this one takes the cake, it was just so good. I was hooked right from the start, sucked in from the opening scene, and my attention never dwindled. That alone is quite the feet for me. The audiobook was so well done, with extra flair throughout. It wasn’t simply reading the story, there were engaging sounds and effects throughout that really made for a memorable listening experience. It’s not often that I recommend audiobooks over print books, but this one is the exception because they went all out. The dual point of view was done by two different narrators and they both did fantastically. The twists were fantastic. I really didn’t see the ending coming, it really took me by the best surprise, and I loved it so much.
