I devoured this book in 2 days: My fast reading via the audiobook definitely helped me to keep track of events as the many points of view and a dual timeline could have otherwise been confusing. However the story pacing really ratcheted up the tension. The end was a bit of a letdown, but it was well worth the journey. So may great characters! A young boy disappears in 1961, never to be found. His sibling disappears 14 years later…. 😱

TiredLibrarian I really liked this one, and agree with you about the ending. 19h

Thanks to library holds I‘m finally getting to read some of last year‘s top books. This one was maybe a bit over complicated but definitely worthy of the hype. At first I struggled a little because there were so many characters to keep up with and two timelines, but it all came together well. I liked that almost all of the POV characters were women, especially Judyta and Louise.

Sharpeipup SO many characters 21h
MallenNC @Sharpeipup I was so glad I read this in print vs as an audiobook. I think I would have been lost 21h
Suet624 I agree. An audio would make this book really hard to follow. 19h

I enjoyed this mystery about two missing children years apart from the same camp. Lots of interesting characters and the setting was perfect and atmospheric! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This book follows 2 women, one a hunter who gets into trouble on a hunt, and the other part of the search and rescue team. Their stories alternate and we learn more about each of them as the tension steadily builds toward the outcome. I found this wholly riveting.

Started this today. I enjoy most of the books I‘ve read by Kubica. I think I may have figured out some of the twist In this one. About halfway through it.

This was quite the story! Somewhat hard to follow as an audiobook given all the characters and the back and forth timelines, nevertheless it kept my attention and made me need to know what really happened with all these characters. You‘ve got two children, years apart, going missing at the same camp…what could have happened? I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this story! 🌟🌟🌟🌟

I for the most part liked this one & the audio was decent. There is a lot going on in this book with dual timelines & lots of characters. I think the only thing that made me not love it was the ending. I was a little frustrated & had so many questions. Not sure if that is the author‘s style or intention. It was a little frustrating, I‘ll put my irritations/questions in the comments

ncsufoxes Did they ever tell the mother what happened to Bear? Or did they just continue to let her believe he was missing? How could you let a 13 year old decide to fake their own death/disappearance (although I do get that her parents are both horrible)? 2w
TiredLibrarian Completely agree with you about the ending. I liked the book otherwise. 2w
BarbaraJean Yes! I had the same two frustrations with the ending. I felt like I could have been talked into accepting both of those situations, though, if there had been just a couple more chapters to flesh things out. Especially with the mother. 2w
