Unmissing

A Thriller

De: Minka Kent

Narrado por: Carly Robins, Jane Oppenheimer

A return from the past knocks a family dangerously off-balance in a novel of spiraling suspense by Washington Post and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Minka Kent.

Merritt Coletto and her husband, Luca, have the life they dreamed of: a coastal home, a promising future, and a growing family. That dream ends with a late-night knock on the door.

Weak, broken, and emaciated, it’s Luca’s first wife, Lydia. Missing for ten years, presumed dead, and very much alive, she has quite a story. Her kidnapping. A torturous confinement that should’ve ended with her dead. And finally, escape. Racked with guilt over the beautiful life they’ve built, Merritt and Luca agree to help get Lydia back on her feet - it’s the least they can do.

But the more enmeshed Lydia becomes in Merritt’s family, the more questions Merritt has. What is it about Lydia that’s especially unnerving? Why hasn’t she gone to the police with her harrowing tale? What does she really want of them? The answers, when they come, are terrifying.

Because Lydia isn’t the only one with secrets.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Kent sets her hook so deep and springs such a dumbfounding series of surprises that very few readers will want to interrupt their reading for anything less than a house fire.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Really enjoyed it!

I enjoyed this one more than I expected to. It held my attention from beginning to end. It was easy to follow and kept me guessing throughout.

Mind Bender

I just didn’t see this ending coming. The majority of the book leaves you curious, and then when you think you’ve got it figured out there’s another surprise. I really enjoyed this book and the performance.

Wow, what a story.

From the beginning of this audiobook I was hooked, fast paced story with twists and turns coming at all times. Lydia was missing for 10 years but she’s back. Husband moved on and has a Wife and Kids. This is the recipe for one great read. I also loved the Narrators.

Loved it!

Great story with twists and turns. Loved the main character and was definitely entertained. Surprise ending.

Loved this.

This is my first experience of a Minka Kent thriller, and it does not disappoint. The narrator is perfect and I can’t recommend this enough!

Good story… character’s portrayal believeable

This book was recommended and I’m thankful to the person that knew me well enough

A bit unbelievable

Not a fan at all. Unbelievable and an easy to figure out ‘who done it’

Not worthy of a “thriller” title

The story was lacking in my opinion. Definitely more of a drama than thriller. I guessed the antagonist halfway through the book, if not sooner. I’m not saying that it was terrible, I just didn’t feel captivated by the story line. I found myself having difficulty finishing the book, not just because of the storyline but also because the narrator lacked emotion.

Great twists and very fast paced

Really enjoyed this audiobook. Narration was great. Story was very fast paced. The only reason I gave it. 4 stars instead of five is that one of the twists just really didn't make sense compared to what was happening in the beginning of the story.

Wow!!

I’m a pretty jaded reader, I usually smirk when I see “ unputdownable” when describing a book. However “unputdownable” should be blazed across this book!!! That first twist!! Did not see that coming, and that very seldom happens for me. Hands down the best I have listened to this year.
