Book Review:

I really enjoyed this book and gave it 4 stars. To be honest I thought this book would be a cozy mystery boy was I wrong. This book is set in Washington DC during winter.

In this book you have four college friends who have been out of school for a little over a year. They all have jobs but only one has her dream job. Addie has her dream job of working at the American History Museum. Lucy is the narrator of the story. Pen is working at a clinic trying to get into med school. Eli is jumping from job to job. Addie has discovered that her ex-boyfriend, Josh has gone missing and she is worried, but this isn't normal for him. He has a high-profile job, and he is known for being on time. What could have happened to him. 

Josh discovers that Lucy isn't telling the truth about herself as he was trying to surprise Addie with a special gift. He confronts her but she doesn't reveal the full truth to him. He then tells Addie, and she doesn't believe him. This causes the break-up because he gets a little violent which scares her.

Addie is attacked during one of her runs and Lucy helps her get herself back together. The police show up at this time to ask about Josh and where he is. They are just looking for him know he hasn't been reported as missing yet but it will be soon.

Lucy helps by looking into the internet through her job because she knows Addie is worried and still has feelings for him. It hasn't been that long ago that they broke up. things are not what they seem to be because things are discovered that have been hidden.

Will Josh be found or is he gone forever and never to be found. You will have to read the book to find out.

I like how the chapters are laid out for the reader to follow.
