La casa está vacía. Tu familia ha desaparecido. Es una mañana que no olvidará jamás. Cynthia Archer, de quince años, despierta con una fuerte resaca y temiendo la inevitable confrontación con sus padres. Pero cuando sale del dormitorio no encuentra a nadie. No ve a sus padres, tampoco a su hermano, Todd. De repente. Sin dejar rastro. No están. Veinticinco años después, Cynthia sigue con varias preguntas y ninguna respuesta. ¿Asesinaron a su familia? Si fue así, ¿por qué a ella no? Y si están vivos, ¿por qué la abandonaron de un modo tan cruel? Cynthia tiene ahora su propia familia y una hija. Teme que les vuelva a ocurrir lo mismo, por eso accede a participar en un programa televisivo sobre el extraño suceso, con la esperanza de que aparezcan nuevas pistas... o de que su padre, su madre o su hermano se pongan finalmente en contacto con ella. Lo que llega es una carta que le pone a Cynthia los pelos de punta. Quizá resolviendo el pasado haya cometido el peor error posible.
Barclay's approach is to busy the narrative with detail, smart angles and anything else that qualifies as devious. At this, he misses none of the tricks. He converts what at first might pass for red herrings into events crucial to the story, and he reconfigures characters that appear to be cheering on the Archer family from the sidelines into people with less benign agendas. Barclay rarely allows the reader to get comfortable, and in the process..he has written his most involving crime novel so far Pertence à sérieEstá contido emÉ resumida emReader's Digest Select Editions: The Overlook • The Last Testament • Left For Dead • No Time For Goodbye de Reader's Digest Het Beste Boek 252: Zonder een woord / Het strandpaviljoen / In Gods naam / Weehuis El Girasol de Reader's Digest Livros Condensados: Nem Um Adeus | Magias De Jardim | Juiz E Juri | Amor E Dr. Devon de Reader's Digest PrêmiosNotable Lists
