Then She was Gone

Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell.

Paperback: 384 pages
Publisher: Atria Books;(November 6, 2018)
ISBN-10: 1501154656





Amazon Review:

Ellie Mack was the perfect daughter. She was fifteen, the youngest of three. She was beloved by her parents, friends, and teachers. She and her boyfriend made a teenaged golden couple. She was days away from an idyllic post-exams summer vacation, with her whole life ahead of her.
And then she was gone.


Now, her mother Laurel Mack is trying to put her life back together. It’s been ten years since her daughter disappeared, seven years since her marriage ended, and only months since the last clue in Ellie’s case was unearthed. So when she meets an unexpectedly charming man in a café, no one is more surprised than Laurel at how quickly their flirtation develops into something deeper. Before she knows it, she’s meeting Floyd’s daughters—and his youngest, Poppy, takes Laurel’s breath away.

Because looking at Poppy is like looking at Ellie. And now, the unanswered questions she’s tried so hard to put to rest begin to haunt Laurel anew. Where did Ellie go? Did she really run away from home, as the police have long suspected, or was there a more sinister reason for her disappearance? Who is Floyd, really? And why does his daughter remind Laurel so viscerally of her own missing girl?


I was surprised that I totally enjoyed this book.  No detectives involved! I don't read many that don't involve a few murders and a detective or two !


There are still many times you find yourself trying to figure out what happened? Or what will happen?  So it does keep you coming back to the book often!   I guess I would call it a good summer read or a good read when stuck in the house!
