Many thanks to NetGalley, Macmillan-Tor/Forge, and Macmillan Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio version of the latest thriller by Hank Phillippi Ryan - 4 stars for an enjoyable twisty tale!
Lily Atwood is the perfect "talent" on a network news channel as well as single mom to 7-year-old Rowen. Lily has a confidential informant who has given her news tips before that have panned out, so when "Mr. Smith" starts getting a bit too personal about his information, Lily is concerned. Suddenly she finds out that someone is investigating a cold case about the disappearance of her older sister, Cassie, over 20 years ago. The secrets that could come out have the potential to blow up the perfection of LIly's life.
Told in 3 points of view - Lily, Greer (Lily's work producer), and Cassie (from in the past) - there's lots of twists and turns in this story. I really liked learning Cassie's story - it's easy to understand her position as a naive college freshman. Lily and Greer are seasoned newscasters though and sometimes were a bit too quick to believe everything they were told. While I thought I had figured some things out, some came as a complete surprise.
The narration by Angela Dawe was great - there were quite a few characters here (male, female and child) and she did a great job voicing each of them. Another great story by this author!
