Many thanks to NetGalley, Berkley Publishing, and Simon Lelic for the opportunity to read his latest thriller - this one will really have your head spinning! 4.5 stars for such a creative read!
Sadie is a teenager who has been missing for almost a week and DI Rob Fleet has been called to his hometown to search for her. But her 5 closest friends, including her twin brother, decide to take matters into their own hands and conduct a search party of their own in the woods they like to frequent. But each of the friends is keeping a secret and one of them might be a killer.
I loved the way this story was told. It starts on Day Six after Sadie has gone missing and is told through police interviews with each of the teenagers, interspersed with DI Fleet's police investigation. It's interesting to read the perspective of each person even though you know that they are all unreliable narrators, even talking to the police. And what makes each of their interviews unique is that you only read the voice of the teenager, not the investigator's question. The ending took me totally by surprise. Another winning book by this author!
