Description:

What happens when the perfect family trip becomes the perfect nightmare?

Cara is a devoted mother to two little girls. She loves her hectic life, but she looks forward to a relaxing weekend alone while her husband, Michael, takes the kids on a camping trip.

But their dream trip turns into a nightmare when their daughters are taken, deep in the forest.

One is returned safe. But one is still missing.

As Cara and Michael frantically search for their little girl it becomes clear that this is no random abduction – her disappearance is linked to shocking secrets which are only now being revealed.

Review:

This book was an arc received via NetGalley for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

I listened to this audiobook and really enjoyed the duel narration by Natalie Duke and Wayne Mitchell.

It is so hard to give a review here without giving too much away.

This was an interesting read. I was kept interested throughout the whole story. I listened to this book twice and last night when I reread it, I was up until 3 am listening to it. It was a while since I listened to it the first time but it still kept me interested. I could remember bits and pieces but I couldn’t remember everything or the ending.

While the story has some points that make me question it. There are still enough it kept me interested.The gaslighting by the husband and the kidnaping is interesting.

The ending was interesting and didn’t disappoint. I enjoyed the Cara’s ending but not sure I would handle things in the same why.

I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good kidnapping story or psychological thriller.

There are themes of kidnapping, toxic relationship, cheating, and mental health. If any of those may be a trigger for you, skip this one.

⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
