Many thanks to NetGalley, Kensington Books, Recorded Books Media for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of the latest thriller by a favorite, Charlie Donlea, and perfectly narrated by Vivienne Leheny. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 5 stars!
Sloan Hastings is studying to become a medical examiner. Her assigned research project is to study forensic genealogy. She starts by submitting her DNA to a genealogy site. Sloan has always known she was adopted and never desired to find her birth parents. But when the results come back, they show that she was actually Baby Charlotte, a 2-month-old who disappeared along with her parents 30 years ago in Nevada. She meets the sheriff of the small town from where she went missing, and he has a mystery of his own to solve that may be related.
Wow - this was such a suspenseful, intriguing book! I started reading the digital but found I had to keep going, so I switched to the audio which was perfectly narrated. I was pulled in from the very beginning, as the subject of forensic genealogy is so fascinating, Sloan was a very likable character and I felt like I was going along on her journey to discover the secrets of her past. The story is told in both the past and present timelines, and the tension kept building throughout the book. Clear some time and read this one!
