Teenage sisters Emma and Cass lived with their mother and her new
husband. Three years ago, both girls disappeared; no one has a clue
where they could be. One night, Cass shows up at her mother's house
to everyone's shock, without Emma. Where was she, where is Emma,
and who took them?
Abby Winter is a forensic psychologist who worked on this case three
years ago. Abby has never gotten over not being able to find these two
sisters. Now, back on the case, Abby is about to interview Cass, with
more questions than ever. But Abby starts out slow, so she doesn't
freak Cas out. As Cass begins telling Abby her story, seemingly
revealing more and more, things don't add up. Abby knows Cass is
keeping secrets from her, but she can't figure out why, or where Emma
really ended up...
Wendy Walker's EMMA IN THE
NIGHT was a very interesting book. I will be honest, this book was
a little bit of a strange read for me. I had a hard time following the
storyline, but I don't want this to discourage anyone from reading this
book. I liked the way Walker described the scenery of the novel, and I
was truly shocked by the ending and did not see it coming at all. It's
one you have to stick with until the end. I think mystery lovers looking
for something different will enjoy this book.
One night three years ago, the Tanner sisters
disappeared: fifteen-year-old Cass and seventeen-year-old
Emma. Three years later, Cass returns, without her sister
Emma. Her story is one of kidnapping and betrayal, of a
mysterious island where the two were held. But to
forensic psychiatrist Dr. Abby Winter, something doesn't
add up. Looking deep within this dysfunctional family Dr.
Winter uncovers a life where boundaries were violated and
a narcissistic parent held sway. And where one sister's
return might just be the beginning of the crime.
