Beautiful. Blonde. Missing. Murdered.
It was supposed to be a romantic getaway to New York City. Breanna’s new boyfriend, Ty, took care of everything – the train tickets, the sightseeing itinerary, the four-story Jersey City rowhouse with the gorgeous view of the Manhattan skyline. But then Bree wakes up one morning and discovers recently missing dog-walker Janelle Beckett dead in the foyer. Ty is gone, vanished without a trace.
A Black woman alone in a strange city, Bree is stranded and out of her depth. There’s only one person she can turn to: her ex-best friend, a lawyer with whom she shares a very complicated past. As the police and a social media mob close in, all looking for #Justice4Janelle, Bree realises that the only way she can stay out of jail is if she finds out what really happened that night.
But when people see only what they want to see, can she uncover the truth hiding in plain sight?
This month i found so many good thrillers. After all those psychological thrillers, i needed a mystery one. And Kellye Garrett’s book, Missing white woman, was the perfect choice. It’s my first book by her, and after reading it, i will definitely check all her other books.
The story starts with Breanna preparing to go on a gateway with her boyfriend, but the next morning, he disappeared, but in exchange, there is a dead body, a white woman, to be precise. From here, Breanna tries her best to save herself for not going in jail. While she is trying to find out what happened last night, some secrets are coming out.
Missing white woman was a captivating thriller, it portraits the reality of what is happening right now in the US because at the base of the story is the missing white woman syndrome. The plot was interesting, and i couldn’t put the book down till i finished it. Thank you so much @randomthingstours, @simonschusteruk and @kellyekell for my copy.
