1.15.2021 - If I Disappear

 If I Disappear by Eliza Jane Brazier

Many thanks to NetGalley and Berkley for gifting me a digital ARC of this debut novel by Eliza Jane Brazier - 4 stars for a twisty mystery based on our fascination with true crime podcasts.

Sera's life has gone off the rails - she lost her baby, she got divorced, can't keep a minimum wage job for long.  She becomes obsessed with a podcast that revolves around missing girls.  When Rachel, the podcast host, drops out of sight, Sera is convinced that she is missing and it's up to her to find Rachel.  She heads out to Rachel's home - a very remote family ranch.  She manages to get a job working with the horses and doing cleaning for Rachel's parents and tries to investigate Rachel's disappearance.  But she discovers that Rachel isn't the first girl to disappear from this area and that no one can be trusted.

A twisty mystery that kept me guessing until the end, even while I figured some things out.  There is a full cast of interesting/weird/creepy characters that combined with the remote atmosphere equals a suspenseful quick read!
