Nicolette "Nic" Farrell has returned to Cooley Ridge after 10 years to help her brother Daniel care for her ailing father. The last time she was there, her best friend Corinne disappeared without a trace after a county fair. Corinnes case is still unanswered.
Once Nic returned home, all of the memories of that night, of the investigation came flooding back to her. Almost haunting her in a way, like they never really left the house.
Shortly after she returned home, Nics younger neighbor Annaleise Carter disappears. Annaleise was a witness and an alibi for Nic and her friends to the events that unfolded at the county fair.
Everyone is a suspect, and only 2 people really know what happened.. and one of them is now missing..
There are similarities to both missing girls. Memories and fears are brought back to the surface.
Told backwards, beginning with day 15 and ending with day 1, it can be a bit confusing to keep track of if you stop reading at any point and pick it back up.
I gave it 3 stars because I was not a fan of the set up. This was not a book I could read in 1 sitting because life got in the way and forgetting that it was told backwards became confusing at times. Short of that, it has everything you'd want in a decent thriller.
