Georgina Cross – The Missing Woman

‘The Missing Woman’ by Georgina Cross is a psychological thriller that had me from the very start. A standalone story with a prologue that explodes of the page and sets the scene for the ensuing story.

We then go to a beautiful summers day in Huntsville, Alabama on the 4th July. All the privileged and beautiful people are relaxing along with the people from the other side of town, around the community pool. One woman, Sabine is seen leaving the pool area and that is the last time anyone sees her. Erica, is the narrator of the story and worries that she may have seen something wrong when Sabine left the pool.

From here on in the suspense and tension to the story keeps up a pace that has you turning the pages as fast as they can be read. The chapters are kept short and this just aids the flow of the story. I had no idea what had happened to Sabine and just raced through this story, dying to discover the secrets the pages held. I won’t give any spoilers but let’s just say, things that happen in the past do have a habit of coming back to haunt you! And haunt it does!

If you like your stories with plenty of mystery and suspense that is almost able to raise the blood pressure, The Missing Woman is worth a read!

Thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for the copy of the book for my review.
