Do you like suspense? If you do, jump right into this great read; WHERE THEY FOUND HER.
Molly Sanderson is a news reporter. Molly works for a small town newspaper. Molly mainly does puff stories. She is married to Justin, a professor at a local college. They have one daughter, a second daughter died during child birth. Molly has had a hard time getting over the death of her child.
Molly gets a great surprise one day, when all the other reporters are either out of town or in the hospital. Her editor gives her the go a head to investigate a body found in a dumpster. When the body turns out to be that of an infant she is of course hesitant because she feels it might bring back memories, but like the good reporter she is she forges ahead.
So many details come to life while Molly is investigating. Who would have done such a terrible crime and why are the police not investigating other deaths that have occurred in the same area? Where did they find her?
Kimberly McCreight keeps you guessing right up until the end. If you saw the movie or read the book Gone Girl, this is pretty close to the same suspense level that you would have experienced in that book.
I started WHERE THEY FOUND HER and could not put it down. I was eager to find out who the real murderer is and was shocked that none of my guesses were right. McCreight writes about a small town that has way too many secrets. From the first page to the last, you are drawn in. WHERE THEY FOUND HER is a great book and has my favorite kind of suspense.
An idyllic suburban town.
A devastating discovery.
Shocking revelations that will change three lives
forever.
At the end of a long winter in well-to-do Ridgedale, New
Jersey, the body of a newborn is found in the woods
fringing the campus of the town's prestigious university.
No one knows the identity of the baby, what ended her
very short life, or how she wound up among the fallen
leaves. But among the residents of Ridgedale, there is no
shortage of opinions.
When freelance journalist, and recent Ridgedale
transplant, Molly Anderson is unexpectedly called upon to
cover the disturbing news for the Ridgedale Readerβthe
town's local paperβshe has good reason to hesitate. A
severe depression followed the loss of her own baby, and
this assignment could unearth memories she has tried so
hard to bury. But the history Molly uncovers is not her
own. Her investigation unravels a decades-old trail of
dark secrets hiding behind Ridgedale's white picket
fences.
Told from the perspectives of three Ridgedale women,
Kimberly McCreight's taut and profoundly moving novel
unwinds the tangled truth behind the tragedy, revealing
that these women have far more in common than they could
have ever known. That the very worst crimes are committed
against those we love. And thatβsooner or laterβthe past
catches up to all of us.
