Clare Mackintosh is quickly becoming a go-to thriller author for me. I have read and enjoyed 3 of her books and I will continue to pick up what she writes. This story follows Anna in her quest to discover what happened to her parents. I enjoyed the way Anna's character was written. It looked at the life and hardships a new mom faces and it was done well. This time can be some of the hardest, yet must joyful moments that I don't think is often represented in fiction titles. Mental health themes are also well addressed in the book. It's hard to say much more so I suggest you just go in blind with this one and enjoy the ride. It was a little slower than her other 2 books, but I didn't mind that at all.
* I received this book from the author/publisher in exchange for an honest review *
