I admit, mysteries and thrillers are probably my genre du jour. And the more twisty and turny, the better. This one was definitely that!
When Alice comes across a strange man on the beach, she immediately senses he needs help. He has no memory, nothing to indicate where he came from. So of course she takes him in until he can figure out just who he is. And predictably, she falls for him along the way.
Meanwhile, young newlywed Lily is in a panic because her husband has disappeared without a trace. He just went to work one day and never came home. While trying to find him, she discovers he wasn’t who she thought he was. In fact, the man she married doesn’t even exist.
Step back in time, now, to a tragic event that happened on the very same beach where Alice came across her handsome stranger. Could these events possibly related? And could Lily’s missing husband be connected? But of course! It wouldn’t be a thriller otherwise.
I love Lisa Jewell’s stories. They rely heavily on characters and family connections while at the same time portraying them authentically. Her latest is no different. Grab it!
