This is my first time reading a book by Lisa Unger. It wasn’t on my tbr shelf and was a spur of the moment pick from the library.
It confused me at first because at the beginning of the book we get the history of this girl named Mia Thorpe. And then the story begins with our main character, Wren. I thought that maybe Mia was Wren (because in the backstory of “Mia”, she talks about wanting to change her name, but her parents won’t let her because she’s still a child) but that wasn’t the case.
Well . . .
Spoilers. And all.
Anyway, our main girl Wren is talked into downloading a dating app by her best friend and ultimately swipes right on a dude. Turns out, dude’s kinda fishy. Except, it’s not the kind of story you’re expecting. . . Or at least, I wasn’t expecting it. . .?
Home girl goes and gets involved with a private investigator, because her man is somehow involved with the disappearance of another girl SPOILERS It’s Mia.
And then. . . she tries to. . .track down the guy? Because she has a traumatized past or some shit.
The pandemic and Covid is frequently brought up, which I didn’t need that reminder but thanks. It has nothing to do with the story, just “Oh yeah, and people are wearing masks” and “A sickness is going around” and all that. Just in case you need another reason to NOT READ THIS BOOK.
