I would like to thank both NetGalley and Sourcebooks for allowing me to read and review this book. Sorry it has taken me so long to do so. All opinions are my own.

Book Review:

This book is a true crime story that has taken place in England in 2011. I gave this book 4 stars.

The book is written in interview style and emails. I like how the author has who is talking at the moment and the emails between himself and the original person who started the idea of the book. There are photos and news article as well. The author gives credit to the person who started this book project.

In this book the author takes through the before during and after the disappearance of Zoe Nolan. He also goes through how he really wasn't interested in the doing the story until his friend started sending him emails for him to read and give his opinion. As he got invested, he gave ideas and possible areas to look into. 

The book goes into details about Zoe's life, and you feel for her and can see what she was thinking and feeling at the time. You are invested, in her life and want to find out what happened to her. 

I won't tell you if they out what happened to her or not because that would be a spoiler and you should read the book.

Side notes if you listen to the audio, they don't give the name of who is talking so I recommend that you read along with the book.
