Description:
Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend’s house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found.
Lily Scott, Nina’s friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake’s disappearance, especially not Nina. But Nina is out there looking for her husband, and she won’t stop until the truth is discovered.
Review: Ok so before anyone comes for me for my rating...I went into this book with VERY low expectations and I have to say that while it wasn't a literary masterpiece by any means...I actually enjoyed this one. I totally called the ending, but it was such a quick paced book that I didn't really mind that I knew what was coming! I listened to the audiobook on this one and it hooked me pretty quick, which is key with getting me to like an audiobook! I do have to say, though, that it has been a couple of months since I listened to it and I had to go back and read reviews to really remember what happened. So looking back, I'd probably rate it closer to 3 cups of tea, but it was a quick read...just not the best Mary Kubica I've read.
Rating: 4 weak cups of tea for this one!
