A very good mystery read which kept me guessing until the end. I thought I had it all figured out but I was wrong. Some of the loose ends were wrapped up to easily or too quickly but on the whole the book was an excellent read. The book weaves the narrative of several people who were a part of the mystery, involving a missing child who may or may not be real.
This book was very good! With a surprising twist!
True that a piece of paper can’t stop a bullet.
Just wasn’t great
I started this book a little unsure, as the description gives away that the missing child that the story centers around, Lily, may not even exist. But as hoped, there’s more to it than you think and I quite enjoyed the story. It’s a sad tale about a woman named Nora who is either abused and afraid (if you believe her) or mentally unstable (if you believe her husband.). It’s told from multiple points of view, including the neighbor of the property where the girl disappears and the investigating officer. Both of these woman are complicated in their own rights, with dark pasts and secrets that drive their motivations and behavior once Nova disappears.
It’s definitely not your typical missing child story and the way it is set up leaves you wondering who is actually telling the truth. Or is there more than one truth? The inclusion of the knitting website was intriguing and I like to think that it is based in reality. I loved the ending to the story and felt that everyone got what they truly deserved. It sounds cliche, but I say it like that for a reason!
