18 posts | 75 read | 34 to read
The runaway New York Times bestseller--over half a million copies in print It happens quietly one hot August morning in Iowa: two families awaken to find their little girls have gone missing in the night. Seven-year-old Calli Clark suffers from selective mutism brought on by a tragedy when she was a toddler. Petra Gregory is Calli's best friend--and her voice. But neither girl has been heard from since they vanished. Now, Calli and Petra's parents are tied by the question of what happened to their children. And the answer is trapped in the silence of unspoken family secrets.

A coworker finished this and said how good it was so she is letting me borrow it. Such a glorious day out so I‘m enjoying my new hammock chair, the nice breeze and relaxing.

If you don‘t have time to read this book at once, don‘t start it! I couldn‘t put this down, I just had to find out what happened to Petra and Calli. This is a story about 2 young girls who mysteriously vanish and how their families become intertwined trying to figure out what happened.

Two little girls go missing. The families and community begin a search that uncovers secrets and misunderstandings. Told from many different points of view, the story kept me on the edge of my seat as they all rush to find the girls. I‘m relatively new to this author, but I will be reading her again.

SincerelyStacie She‘s from Iowa and she writes great mysteries!!! Definitely check them all out! 6y

Das Buch wird aus mehreren Perspektiven erzählt und ist bis zum Ende spannend. Aber die Auflösung fand ich dann doch irgendwie lau.

This was so great! An awesome mystery of two missing 7 year old girls with a sick and sad twist to it. The ending seemed a bit forced (need for the perfect ending?), but overall this was a great page turner told from many different perspectives.

4/5
