3.30.2024 - Good Half Gone

Good Half Gone by Tarryn Fisher 

Many thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Trade Publishing Graydon House for gifting me a digital ARC of the latest thriller by Tarryn Fisher - 4 stars!

Iris Walsh saw her twin sister, Piper, get kidnapped, but no one except her Gran believed her and the case quickly went cold.  Iris always felt like Piper was the good half of the twins - pretty and popular where Iris stayed in the shadows.  As an adult, Iris is obsessed with finding out what happened to Piper.  To do that, she gains an internship at the Shoal Island Hospital for the criminally insane, off the shores of Washington, accessible only by ferry and water taxi.  Will she finally find her answers to what happened?

What a creepy location for a thriller - a remote hospital for the criminally insane!  You could feel the horror and isolation in the writing, on the sides of both patients and staff.  Iris' grief and obsession are so strong, and her Gran is an amazing person as well, having to take the place of the twins' mother in raising them.  This book was filled with tension and twists and another great read by Fisher!
