Ten years ago, Nicolette Farrell's best friend, Corinne
Prescott, vanished without a trace after a night spent at
the local carnival. At that time, the investigation focused
heavily on Nicolette, her brother Daniel Farrell,
Nicolette's boyfriend Tyler, and Corinne's boyfriend
Jackson. No one knew what had happened to Corinne that night
but there were plenty of secrets that each one of the
friends knew; secrets that are kept by each friend and not
shared with anyone.
Now, Nicolette is living several hours away in the city. She
has a satisfying career and a wealthy, handsome fiancé. Then
she receives a phone call from her brother. It seems that
their father is running out of the money that they need to
keep him in a nice retirement home and Daniel needs Nic to
come home to help get the family home ready to sell. Since
she is off work for two months, she agrees to sublet her
apartment and return to Cooley Ridge.
What she does not expect is the old sparks that still seem
to be there between Tyler and her. She also does not expect
another young girl to go missing. The circumstances were
much the same as those that surrounded Corinne's
disappearance so many years ago, and before she knew it, Nic
is deeply involved in this investigation. In addition, her
father keeps saying things in his more lucid moments that
strike fear in her heart because it sounds as if he may
somehow have been involved in Corinne's disappearance.
The suspense builds as Nic begins to discover the answers to
the long held secrets of her ex-friends from ten years ago.
The closer she gets to the truth the more dangerous it
becomes for her. In addition, the answers she finds are mind
shattering.
ALL THE MISSING GIRLS is a very unique mystery novel told
from the past to the present as it is unraveled and the
truth is exposed. Megan Miranda is a writer who knows how to
spin a creepy and twisted tale, which she has done with this
current work. There are plenty of suspects to choose from
and each one had a different reason for committing the
crime. However, do not expect to solve either mystery easily
or at all. Ms. Miranda has created a tale containing lies,
half-truths and all out terror. I guarantee that you will
not be able to put it down until you know all of the truth.
As for what the truth happens to be in solving the mysteries
of ALL THE MISSING GIRLS, you will be astonished at the
outcome. While secrets abound in such a little town of
Cooley Ridge, the answers are not as simple to find as one
might think. The paths are winding, twisting and turning to
the point that you would love to be inside this story
following the few clues that are present to help solve the
old mystery as well as the more recent one.
Try not to read ALL THE MISSING GIRLS late at night. If you
do, though, be sure to have plenty of lights on as well as
all of the doors and windows locked. It is the only way to
read this book while feeling somewhat safe although you
should expect several jumpy moments as you move through the
pages.
Like the spellbinding psychological suspense in The Girl
on the Train and Luckiest Girl Alive, Megan
Miranda’s novel is a nail-biting, breathtaking story about
the disappearances of two young women—a decade apart—told in
reverse.
It’s been ten years since Nicolette Farrell
left her rural hometown after her best friend, Corinne,
disappeared from Cooley Ridge without a trace. Back again to
tie up loose ends and care for her ailing father, Nic is
soon plunged into a shocking drama that reawakens Corinne’s
case and breaks open old wounds long since
stitched.
The decade-old investigation focused on Nic,
her brother Daniel, boyfriend Tyler, and Corinne’s boyfriend
Jackson. Since then, only Nic has left Cooley Ridge. Daniel
and his wife, Laura, are expecting a baby; Jackson works at
the town bar; and Tyler is dating Annaleise Carter, Nic’s
younger neighbor and the group’s alibi the night Corinne
disappeared. Then, within days of Nic’s return, Annaleise
goes missing.
Told backwards—Day 15 to Day 1—from the
time Annaleise goes missing, Nic works to unravel the truth
about her younger neighbor’s disappearance, revealing
shocking truths about her friends, her family, and what
really happened to Corinne that night ten years
ago.
Like nothing you’ve ever read before, All the
Missing Girls delivers in all the right ways. With
twists and turns that lead down dark alleys and dead ends,
you may think you’re walking a familiar path, but then Megan
Miranda turns it all upside down and inside out and leaves
us wondering just how far we would be willing to go to
protect those we love.
