Book Review

The Last to See Her by Courtney Evan Tate is an Adult Mystery Thriller involving secrets, a broken marriage, and a late-night walk..

Synopsis

“A woman disappears into the dark city night…

Gen is on the verge of a divorce from her cheating husband. When her sister, Meg, has a convention to attend in the Big Apple, she invites Gen along to celebrate her newly found freedom. But the perfect sisters’ getaway quickly goes awry when a tipsy Gen defiantly throws her wedding ring off the hotel room’s balcony. Then, wanting some fresh air, she decides to take a late-evening walk alone and vanishes without a trace.

The investigation that follows uncovers secrets–and betrayals–between sisters and spouses that will twist the truth in on itself until nothing is clear.

What really happened to Gen and who, besides Meg, was the last to see her?”

My Thoughts

SO I wasn’t too blown away by this domestic thriller. The characters felt meh and the plot had that typical, failed marriage, girl goes missing vibe. I still enjoyed the ride we went on though with the twists and turns, but It just wasn’t anything that took me by surprise. Pretty much the middle portion had me flipping through just to find the riveting moments.

I gave this one a 3 out of 5 stars. If you really love the domestic thriller genre, this one would be a decent weekend read. As for a spine-tingling, riveting story, I just didn’t find this one to fit in.
