The Night She Disappeared is a slow burn eery mystery set in the country side of the UK. The atmosphere was fantastic. I, mean, it involves a house called ‘Dark Place’ and also had dark academia vibes with the boarding school.

2017: 19 year old Tallulah is finally getting a date night with her boyfriend Zach.

2019: Sophie is walking in the woods near the boarding school where her boyfriend just work as the head teacher when she sees a note fixed to a tree with a sign that says: ‘Dig Here’ . . .
A cold case, an abandoned mansion, family trauma, and dark secrets are the recipe for Lisa Jewell’s latest new novel. One that I couldn’t put down and read in less than 24 hours!
Rating: Ok, so I read this one in less than 24 hours and need to know what was going on, but when I got there . . . I was kind of let down. It was like driving to Disneyland and then only going to the parking lot. Do I still recommend it? Heck Yeah!!!
Thank you to @atria for the #gifted ARC. I literally screamed when I got this one in the mail! This one comes out 9/7. Definitely put this one on your #tbr. It’s perfect for spooky season!
