This book kept me on the edge of my seat. To me, the ending felt rushed. Overall suspenseful read.

This is a really good book. I could hardly put it down. At first, I'm a little close minded about gay people, I didn't want to keep reading but for the story to unfold, the gay kind of fit the story better. Anyway, get past that and I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did. It is full of surprising moments but it flows and is easy reading. It may be far fetched, but it's still a good read.

Such a good read! I read it in one week which is fast for me. The story was told very well and the characters were a good balance and it wasn’t predictable. Highly recommend.

Spoiler free review.Listened to 70% and read 30%.10 hours of the most intense plot, with so much suspense I’ve read/listened to in a long time. Maybe ever.Local Woman Missing now one of my top books.It is the most gripping read I swear.… From the prologue I was just consumed. Then straight to part one I was like is this the same book.. what is happening I had to go check.This book has a few pov. Which is why I had to go check and the narrows are different. Which was actually amazing because I can’t tell them part. Even with the name heading on each chapter I sometimes get lost but with this book I didn’t once. I thought the formatting and the writing was flawless.Just a brilliant story. Unlike anything I thought it would be.The twists were just shocking.I had so many theories throughout reading and I got them all wrong.I did find myself also not wanting to know because I was enjoying the story so much lol.When a local mother and her six-year-old daughter, Delilah, suddenly vanish, their close-knit suburban community is rocked by fear and suspicion. How could such a terrible thing have happened in their small town?*Past and Present

Nice value for money i like it

El libro ha llegado con pegamento y papel pegado en la parte de atrás, al quitárselo se ha dañado el libro. Horrible.The book came with something sticky on the back and cardboard stack to it, when I wiped it off the paper got damaged. Sincerely disappointed.

This book will get you out of any reading slump. The twists are spectacular! Definitely one of the best thrillers I‘ve read this year.
