Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell

She Was Here. Then She Was Gone. And Nothing Was Ever the Same Again.

Ellie Mack was the perfect daughter — beautiful, clever, and loved by everyone. Then, at fifteen, she disappeared. No trace. No explanation. No body. Ten years later, her mother Laurel is still searching for answers, still unable to move on, still haunted by the daughter she lost.

When Laurel meets a charming man named Floyd and falls unexpectedly in love, she begins to feel, for the first time in a decade, that life might be possible again. But Floyd's daughter bears an uncanny resemblance to Ellie. And the closer Laurel gets to Floyd's world, the more she begins to suspect that the truth about what happened to her daughter may be closer than she ever imagined — and far more disturbing.

Then She Was Gone by Lisa Jewell is a masterfully crafted psychological thriller — a story about love, loss, obsession, and the terrifying secrets that ordinary people keep. From the #1 bestselling author of The Family Upstairs.
