"Both twisted and twisty, this smart psychological thriller sets a new standard for unreliable narrators." –Booklist, Starred Review

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.

Bestselling author Wendy Walker returns with another winning thriller, Emma in the Night.

Great Narrators and Interesting Twist

Pretty good read. It had a nice twist. It was a little drawn out at times, but overall, it was enjoyable.

Loved!

Loved this book! Definitely worth the read. It kept me guessing til the end. Highly recommended.

This family gives new depth to dysfunction

This book started off fairly slowly but built until it was boiling. I really enjoyed the analysis of the psychological/pathological behaviors at play in this family. It's a mystery but it's also a family drama. It kept me changing my mind as to what I thought had happened. It's certainly not a happy-go-lucky story and I felt a bit drained when it was done but I still really enjoyed this book. The narrator did a fine job.

Good Story - Great ending

I really enjoyed this book a lot - it was quite suspenseful and I was not expecting the way that it ended - “Audible 20 Review Sweepstakes Entry”
