As a teenager, Hannah Jacobs planned a sleepover with her sister Casey, but a blizzard altered the plans. Sometime that night, an unknown killer broke into Casey’s apartment and brutally stabbed her multiple times, leaving her for dead.
The search for a missing young woman unearths dark secrets in Sterling’s thriller.
Megan Floyd disappeared on December 12, 1996, when she was 19 years old. Two years later, her father, Tom, is still searching for her. His marriage has fallen apart and his wife, Lisa, is barely hanging on, believing Megan to be dead.
Writing:
The writing was simple and easy to understand which I liked because I saw no reason for it to “wow” the reader, because personally I felt that it made the lines talking about grief more powerful since it wasn’t overly poetic and instead more “raw”.
Booknerd thriller enthusiasts, I’ve found the next book for you! Right here in my neck of the woods in lovely, scenic, colorful Colorado! I walked someone’s dog in 6 degree weather this morning…..🥶 so yes I would say I have a fear of winter, Anyway!
Megan went missing in the mid-1990s and, regardless of her father’s known presence as a police officer, the case goes cold. Unwilling to admit defeat, Tom decides to enlist a private investigator and his quirky and troubled assistant to find out the real reason his daughter went missing.
Wow, for a shorter book, a lot happens between page 1 to page 220. Sometimes I think I prefer my books to be 200 pages or less – it forces authors to get their ideas across using a shorter amount of words. Less fluff more straight action.
Megan Floyd disappeared after her shift at work 2 years ago. Her parents struggle with her disappearance – Tom, her father, spends his days searching endlessly for her. Looking anywhere he can. Marking off a map as he searches a new area. Her mother, Lisa, has fallen apart completely and ceases to really be living anymore.
I thought this was really good! It’s a 5⭐️for me and the audiobook/narrator Jess Nahikian was excellent. She did such a good job. This was book one in The Fear of series and I’m definitely on board for book 2. This was intense and heartbreaking but done in such a way that I couldn’t stop listening. It was dark at times with many realistic broken people that weren’t going to change. To much had happen. I wanted to know everything about how they got there. This crime mystery audiobook was different than I’m used to seeing but I’m hooked!
Definitely recommend this one.
