In Nicci French's Losing You, this thriller was a helluva of a whopper, when it took place in one day in Sandling Island, England. In a nutshell, Nina Landry was a single mother, who was about to go on holiday in Florida, after her daughter Charlotte set her up with a surprise 40th birthday party. When her daughter didn't turn up, she panicked and wanted to find her, while she learned secrets on her daughter's life and accused everybody of keeping secrets from her. In the end, she received the shock at the end of the day, when she fought for her life, when someone she trusted betrayed her. I don't want to give away the closing ending.
In this gripping thriller, I did feel so terrible and bad for Nina and for Charlotte. I hated that it was from one bad surprise to another. It wasn't what she expected, even for her birthday. I loved the Sandling Island location for this storyline. It made it sound so ideal. This would shock you and leave you shaking in the end. Great drama, plenty of suspense and intrigue, and lots of shocking twists that were filled with mystery in the way.
Come on and enjoy this thriller today!
