Book Description

In Wendy Walker's thrilling novel Don't Look for Me, the greatest risk isn’t running away. It’s running out of time.

The car abandoned miles from home.

The note found at a nearby hotel.

The shattered family that couldn’t be put back together.

They called it a “walk away.”

It happens all the time.

Women disappear, desperate to leave their lives behind and start over.

But is that what really happened to Molly Clarke?

Don’t Look For Me is:

“GRIPPING...WITH UNEXPECTED TWISTS... You’ve got a cracking mystery on your hands.”

―Adrian McKinty, author of The Chain

“A NAILBITER . . . SO MUCH MORE THAN A TWISTY THRILLER. It’s a heartbreaking portrait of a family coping with grief and an insightful study of guilt and blame, gaslighting and agency. If you

love fast-paced page-turners with relatable, flawed characters, look no further!”

―Angie Kim, author of Miracle Creek

My Thoughts

This is my third book by Wendy Walker and have to say, my new favorite.

I could not put it down. This was breathtaking, fast-paced, addictive, the twists, and no predictable at all. A very unique plot, and relatable and flowed characters. In my opinion, Wendy's best work yet. 

I recommend Don't Look For Me 100% not only to fans of Wendy's previous work but also if you enjoy thriller/suspense stories.

Thank you St. Martin's Press and Netgalley for the free advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

Book Description

"Both twisted and twisty, this smart psychological thriller sets a new standard for unreliable narrators." –Booklist, Starred Review

One night three years ago, the Tanner sisters disappeared: fifteen-year-old Cass and seventeen-year-old Emma. Three years later, Cass returns, without her sister Emma. Her story is one of kidnapping and betrayal, of a mysterious island where the two were held. But to forensic psychiatrist Dr. Abby Winter, something doesn't add up. Looking deep within this dysfunctional family Dr. Winter uncovers a life where boundaries were violated and a narcissistic parent held sway. And where one sister's return might just be the beginning of the crime.

Bestselling author Wendy Walker returns with another winning thriller, Emma in the Night.

My Thoughts

Another psychological thriller which kept me interested from page one to the end. This one in particular with a lot of unexpected twists and definitely an unexpected ending, did not see that coming. Very complex characters which have to deal with a lot of internal struggles, family relationships can be hard at times and Emma in the Night shows us a very clear example of that. With a refreshing writing Wendy Walker gives us a story full of suspense, complicated, very self-centered but reliable characters, unexpected twists and an ending which will be hard to forget.
