As a mother and parent I Can say that this book is definitely chilling.
I’ve read other books by the other and always enjoyed her writing style as well as the stories, but this one is different from her usual mystery crime ones.
It’s a domestic thriller that kept me up just to find out if my suspicions were proven or not and, because I read a lot of them, I was right. But that didn’t stop me from enjoying the heart pounding, twisted plot.
One of the biggest fear of any parent is to find out that their kids are gone missing and the finding them and accept that they are gone for good its terrifying and seems surreal.
Another great story from a now favourite author.
Description
Everyone is going to the housewarming party.
All the same people who lived on the street the day Abi vanished…
Will her mother finally learn the truth?
Ava only left her daughter in the pushchair for five minutes. The buckle was fastened, and she was sure it was safe. But when she came downstairs, the door was open and Abi was gone – she walked down the road, past the Lovegoods’ house, and was never seen again.
A year later, the Lovegoods throw a housewarming party, showing off the results of their renovation. Ava doesn’t want to go. She can’t bear to look down that end of the road, to see the place where Abi vanished, and she doesn’t want to spend time with people who don’t share her grief. Her husband Mattpersuades her: he’s worried about her. A night out might do her good.
But as her friends and neighbours chat, and the drink and gossip flows, Ava learns something new about the day she has re-lived a thousand times. A throwaway comment which could change everything.
Ava thought she knew every last detail of that day.
She’s about to find out she was wrong…
Brilliantly dark and moving suspense fiction for fans of Gillian Flynn, Claire McGowan and Lisa Jewell, The Housewarming will have your pulse racing and your heart in your mouth from start to finish
