I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.Upon reading the synopsis for 'If I Go Missing', choosing to read the book was a no-brainer. Especially with one's prior experience with the author's previous book, The Surgeon. In this her latest release, Leslie Wolfe created a riveting, fast-paced tale where deceit, secrets, betrayal and mysteries abound. Sit back, grab some chocolate and prepare for a thrilling ride.

Now, this is a story which one needs to go into blindly so that one can appreciate the surprises it has to offer. The characters behave as one would expect given the situation they find themselves in. One thing for sure is you will either despise them, love them or pity them. There are times you may want to slap some sense into a few. The main character whose POV drove the story had me shaking my head for the majority of the story. How can one person be so clueless. Strangely enough, her actions paid off in the end. Lucky for her, she got spared being sacrificed on the altar of divorce, which would have been justified for all the lies she told.

'If I Go Missing', remind readers to exercise caution in accepting things and taking at face value. There is always a hidden agenda in every action taken, whether good or bad. In this instance, the majority were bad, as the narrator would discover. As the story unfolds, so do the secrets and lies. It reflected the effectiveness of the in case I go missing binder. A concept which the narrator has been pushing from the beginning of the story. This one had me turning the pages as I needed answers. Boy oh boy! It gave me more than I expected. I am still reeling from the revelations. It was quite a compelling read.

Fans of psychological Thrillers will find 'If I Go Missing' compelling. I can't wait to see what next Wolfe has in store for her readers.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
