Merritt Coletto and her husband, Luca, have the life they dreamed of: a coastal home, a promising future, and a growing family. That dream ends with a late-night knock on the door. Weak, broken, and emaciated, it's Luca's first wife, Lydia. Missing for ten years, presumed dead, and very much alive, she has quite a story. Her kidnapping. A torturous confinement that should've ended with her dead. And finally, escape. Racked with guilt over the beautiful life they've built, Merritt and Luca agree to help get Lydia back on her feet, it's the least they can do. But the more enmeshed Lydia becomes in Merritt's family, the more questions Merritt has. What is it about Lydia that's especially unnerving? Why hasn't she gone to the police with her harrowing tale? What does she really want of them? The answers, when they come, are terrifying. Because Lydia isn't the only one with secrets.… (lisätietoja)

Another unexpected twister from this author. ( )
  Suem330 | Dec 28, 2023 |
I can’t say I’ve ever been disappointed with a book by Minka Kent…she is one of my go-to authors when I’m feeling a twisty psychological thriller. With Unmissing, it did not disappoint.

Merritt Coletto, 8 months pregnant, has an enviable marriage to Luca Coletto, and together they have a young daughter. But when his presumed-dead first wife shows up at their doorstep, long-held secrets emerge…and it will definitely take you for a wild ride. I could not put this down.

Told through the POVs of Merritt and Lydia, both in first person, the narrative will make you think one thing, and just when you think you’ve guessed it, the author throws in another twist. And then another. I saw a couple of them coming, but others had me gasping “omg!!”

If you like psychological thrillers, and especially if you’re a fan of this author, recommended you pick this one up. ( )

Hard to rate this one. It had so much potential but missed the mark. Didn't like or identify with any of the characters (except Delphine - we've all known and loved someone like her). Overall the writing was too simple and didn't feel adult-level. The plot and characters had great bones but none of it ever quite developed sufficiently. And then it just ended rather abruptly. Overall it read like a draft manuscript waiting for an editor. ( )

Wow, this book kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. Imagine being attacked and held captive for 9 years by a monster. You escape after you are left for dead after being shot and you find out that your husband has not only married again, but he has landed himself in the lap of luxury.

Told from the POVS of both wives, this is a train wreck waiting to happen, yet those trains take some ghastly turns before the wreckage even begins!

Fast-paced, exhilarating, thriller lovers delight! ( )

This domestic thriller by Minka Kent was totally unpredictable and awesomely twisted. Who couldn’t love a dual POV that switches between the first wife (missing and presumed dead), and the second wife (living a life of wealth and comfort with the “perfect” husband)? I hung on every word of this story, from the harrowing beginning to the explosive finish! ( )
