This book checks all the boxes for me. Alternating timelines, unsolved cold cases, dark secrets, multiple unreliable characters and a sister who wants to know the truth are perfectly woven together to make this a haunting novel that you do not want to miss. (Let’s not forget the podcast clips that are thrown in – AHHH its perfect!)
Jessica Fadley left for college in the fall of 1998. On her sister Lindsay’s 6th birthday, she goes missing from her home. Jessica isn’t the only girl from college that went missing that year. There were three others, and no bodies or clues have ever been found. The investigation went cold, and no answers were given. There are clues and similarities that tie the girls together, but apparently some secrets are best left hidden. Twenty four years later when a podcast picks up this cold case and a journalist, Ryan, comes to town, the heated story picks right back up as secrets, lies and bodies are found in the lake.
This is a fast paced bingeable read. It is also one that you want/need to read with someone because when the ending hits – you are going to need to talk about it out loud. You can’t hold it in. I am really looking forward to seeing what else Katherine Greene writes. I will be following her closely!
