Did her husband leave? Did he die? Is she losing her mind like her mother?
I had a moment of deja vu when picking book, it's my second Kindle First pick this year about a woman who's husband goes missing. Fortunately, Veronica (the woman in this book), is not a pathetic mess, so this book was much better. Really, my only gripe about this book is the three year old daughter, Elizabella (ugh, that name). It's just not believable that she's three, she sounds much older. Five, maybe, and that's still a stretch. I found myself reading the whole thing in a day, because I wanted to know how it ended. Veronica's panicked thoughts, trying to piece together what happened (Did her husband leave? Did he die? Is she losing her mind like her mother?), kept the pace pretty frantic. The creepy way her daughter seems to know some things before they happen and the way police keep talking to Veronica like a suspect kept the tension high. There were some good twists, and more importantly, things got explained without me having to totally suspend belief. Definitely one of the better thrillers I've read from the Kindle First selection.
