At the beginning of the year, I made a list of authors that I've been saying I need to read and commit to reading at least one book by each of the authors in 2026. Here's my thoughts on one of those books/authors.
Blurb: Author Grady Green is having the worst best day of his life.
Grady calls his wife to share some exciting news as she is driving home. He hears Abby slam on the brakes, get out of the car, then nothing. When he eventually finds her car by the cliff edge the headlights are on, the driver door is open, her phone is still there. . . but his wife has disappeared.
A year later, Grady is still overcome with grief and desperate to know what happened to Abby. He can’t sleep, and he can’t write, so he travels to a tiny Scottish island to try to get his life back on track. Then he sees the impossible — a woman who looks exactly like his missing wife.

My Thoughts: I've actually read this author before when I read Daisy Darker but she wasn't an author I really had an opinion about so I wanted to try more by her. This was an interesting read with a very unlikable narrator and I was never quite sure what I thought of him or really any of the characters. I did guess a lot of what was going on but there were a few spins that surprised me. The pacing was good if a little repetitive and the ending was a little more open ended than I prefer. This was an enjoyable read but I'm not sure this author's writing style and stories really work for me. I'm glad I read this and would recommend it if you're looking for a quick psychological thriller (especially in the audio format) but I think I'm good without more of Alice Feeney's books. My Rating: Liked It! (3.5 Stars)
