THREE COUPLES. THREE DAUGHTERS. ONE MISSING GIRL.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

My husband and I are hosting a party this evening \u2014 just for the adults. Our daughters are all leaving for college. We\u2019ve raised them together, watched them grow up together, and now we\u2019re drinking champagne beneath the fairy lights, pretending we\u2019re ready to let them go.<\/p>\n

Kate is mine. <\/b>Brilliant. Funny. The kind of girl who lights up every room she walks into.<\/p>\n

Lily <\/b>has been her best friend since kindergarten. Shy, anxious, always half a step behind her.<\/p>\n

And finally there\u2019s Julia<\/b>. Beautiful, loyal \u2014 and fearless.<\/p>\n

I never thought I\u2019d get a life like this. Not with a past like mine. But here I am, with a husband who adores me and friends who\u2019ve become family. We drink, we dance. I go to bed happy.<\/p>\n

By morning one of the girls is missing.
\n<\/b>
\nMine<\/i><\/b>.<\/p>\n

I thought I knew these people. My husband. My oldest friends. Their daughters.<\/p>\n

Someone among us is lying about that night. But they\u2019ve made a terrible mistake. They don\u2019t know what I\u2019m capable of. Not yet. <\/b><\/p>\n

My Review<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\" A final summer party with three couples and their three daughters before the girls go off to university. What could possibly go wrong? In the end, everything.<\/p>\n

I sat down to read it on a Friday afternoon, and before supper, I was over halfway through. I hated to put it down, and I didn\u2019t get back to it until Sunday. However, it did give me time to think about who murdered Kate.<\/p>\n

The author planted plenty of red herrings along the way to muddle the path to the killer. A few times, I thought I knew the killer\u2019s identity, only to have to cross that person off my list. When the killer was identified, I have to say I was surprised. I won\u2019t say anything more because I don\u2019t want to put any spoilers in my review.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll definitely be looking for more books by this author, Kristi Belcamino.<\/p>\n
