GET READY TO MEET REBEKAH. SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR TIM WEAVER IS BACK WITH HIS FIRST STANDALONE


Rebekah Murphy has been missing for five months. Why is no one looking for her?

___________

Rebekah Murphy knows too much. . .

She knows she's alone on an abandoned island with a killer on her trail.
She knows that to get home to her children, she must survive long enough to understand why this is happening.
She knows someone tried to kill her for a secret.
What she doesn't know is what that secret is . . .

Detective Frank Travis doesn't know enough . . .

He doesn't know where to find Louise Mason. He doesn't know how and why she vanished into thin air three months ago. He doesn't know the identity of the man last seen talking to her. Not yet.
But what he does know is that he's a week away from retirement -- and if he doesn't find out where Louise went, no one will.

What neither Rebekah nor Detective Travis realize is that each holds a missing piece from the same puzzle -- and it will cost them everything they love to finally solve it . . .

Critic Reviews

Gripping
Missing Pieces is an emotional and compulsive thriller which, like the David Raker series showcases Tim Weaver's trademark clever and original plotting. Rebekah is an unforgettable character that I rooted for from the very first page. Twisty, unpredictable and so gripping. That ending will stay with me for a long time. A brilliant book! (Claire Douglas)
Raw, fraught, multi-layered, and a fantastic portrayal of a strong female heroine in peril (Gillian McAllister)
Smart, pacy and completely gripping - you'll feel like you're right there in the thick of the action. A five-star thriller (TM Logan)
As gripping as anything he's written before . . . Chilling
Buckle up - this is one serious pulse-pounder

Oh I did love listening to this. It’s well written with lots of scary bits. Really a very clever tome.

Marvellous

Exciting to buy. Excruciating to experience.

I love Tim Weaver’s books. I’ve purchased them all and never regret recommending them. I was thrilled to see a new book released.

Now that I’ve made it to the end, my disappointment is palpable.
This book I can’t recommend. It was only out of bloody mindedness that I finished it. For the first two thirds of the book I was wishing the main character would hurry up and die so the book would end faster. Spoiler alert: she doesn’t die.
As for the big reveal; a total anticlimax, sigh. Although, the second to last chapter cheered me up so there’s that.
I personally think the world would benefit from an endless stream of Raker novels.
It’s the author’s prerogative to write whatever he wants so I guess he wanted to write this novel. I just didn’t like the incessant whining and vagueness of the mc. For a Dr her problem solving skills were frustratingly glacial paced. Definitely not someone you’d want to have on your zombie apocalypse team. Canon fodder.
Narration was excellent. Perfectly characterized and articulated.
Sorry Tim Weaver. I just can’t 5 star this book.

Long. Interminably long.
