APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
In this thriller about a family torn apart by violent death, you’ll be searching for the unreliable narrator—if there is one. Courtney Gray’s family is vacationing in northern Wisconsin when her niece Mae comes running into Courtney’s kitchen; Courtney’s brother Nolan and his wife, Courtney’s best friend Emily, have been brutally murdered in the cottage next door while their son Wyatt slept. But Nolan and Emily’s teenage daughter, Reese, is missing. Has something happened to Reese, or is Reese implicated in her parents’ deaths? And does this tragedy have anything to do with the disappearance of another girl a few years ago? Mary Kubica (Local Woman Missing) tells the story from Courtney’s and Reese’s perspectives in alternate chapters, leaving us guessing about what really happened until almost the last minute. There’s nothing like a great small-town murder mystery. From juicy secrets to townie melodrama and family tension, It’s Not Her ticks off every box.
