Book Club Recommended
Confusing, Interesting, Unconvincing
A Solid Crime-Mystery Novel

The story of the Bethany girls and the mystery surrounding their disappearance captures your interest and holds your attention right from the start. The character claiming to be Heather Bethany is entirely believable as a woman who has been through a traumatic experience -- yet something just isn't quite right about her story.

I enjoyed this book and have only two criticisms.

Each chapter is written from the perspective of a different character. Personally, I didn't care for playing the guessing game of "who's talking now?"

Also, I think the character of Miriam was weak. She was neither someone I loved nor hated, cheered for nor rooted against. She was entirely unsympathetic, and as a mom, she should have been my strongest connection.

Despite these two points, I still found the book enjoyable and I am looking forward to discussing it with my Book Club!
