Book Review: The Missing Woman

The Missing Woman audiobook

Share

Continuing my audiobook binge, I dove into The Missing Woman by Georgina Cross last week (pun intended: the book begins poolside, haha). This was another good audiobook that I flew right through in a couple of days.

For me, a good audiobook keeps my attention but doesn’t leave me completely confused if I miss a few seconds because someone says hi to me while I’m walking the dog. Bonus points if you keep me guessing. This one did the trick!

Although the reader learns what’s happening before the end, it did keep me guessing up until the truth was revealed. I don’t want to give anything away, so I’ll leave it at that.

Beautiful, rich Sabine has gone missing and our narrator, Erica, was the last one to see her. It’s the Fourth of July and the whole neighborhood is hanging out by the community pool when Sabine catches Erica’s eye and gives her a look that leaves Erica unnerved. As she leaves the pool later, Erica stumbles upon Sabine’s charm bracelet. Unfortunately, she won’t get a chance to return it because Sabine has gone missing.

Did someone kidnap her from her house, where blood is found on the floor? Did they throw her in the trunk of a car after chasing her through the woods? Or did she grab a passport and skip town for some reason?

The neighborhood gossip is running wild with theories. As someone who lives in a small town where my neighbors are constantly in Facebook groups and on Nextdoor talking about the local goings on, I liked the online chats worked into the story. Very realistic, at least where I live.

I’m sure this one is good in print too, but I’m recommending The Missing Woman as a good audiobook that’s a quick listen.

The hubby @seegreatart and I took a road trip to F The hubby @seegreatart and I took a road trip to Fort Pierce, FL this weekend to see the latest Florida Highwaymen exhibition at @aebackusmuseum. 🎨 

My hubby has written extensively on the Florida Highwaymen, and we are lucky to get to see so much of their work here in Florida. This group of more than two dozen African American painters captured the Florida landscape in bright, vivid colors from the 1950s on. They could often be found selling the paintings out of the trunks of their cars. 

You used to be able to nab these paintings in garage sales around the state from people who didn't know what they had. However, those days are long gone. Now, these paintings can go for tens of thousands.

One of the original Highwaymen, Roy “R.A.” McLendon, was in attendance last evening. How work hangs in the Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture.

Have you ever seen these paintings around FL?

The woman blushed and seemed embarrassed that Lucy had caught her looking through the shelf. "Do you have Hydrangeas on Hill Street?"

"I do." Lucy nodded, moving to the left of the woman and plucking the title off the shelf. "I read it when it first came in. It's a lovely book."

"I feel a little silly." The woman opened the book and turned it so Lucy could see the author photograph on the back flap. "It's my first book. I still get a little thrill every time I find it in a bookstore." Her cheeks still flushed pink, her eyes not meeting Lucy's.
