Last Resort by Hannah Alexander
After the disappearance of Carissa Cooper two years ago Missouri was mentioned in the New York Times but this book is one you could put away, Missouri has survived without National Headlines. But now there are two bodies, no sign of a ransom demand, just tragedy fastened to a quiet family.
In old photos strategically displayed in Rae's Café all eyes are on Noelle who will recall none of the persons she used to know what-so-ever. In a thriller Hanhan Alexander shows how people can hide secrets so well they become engraved in their faces -- like a reflection in dark water.
Noelle Cooper lacks Noelle herself and has been plunged into a nightmare--being forced to search for the lost girl she saw very briefly in an alleyway, seconds before she vanished forever in the night would test any woman's self-control, but Noelle -- Suspected of stalking and having post traumatic stress (PTS)---stubbornly determines to find her cousin before it's too late.
But disturbing new clues spell out a sinister, interlinked enigma between Noelle and her cousin Verlaine—just long enough for Nathaniel Trask - a man who, to his friends, will stand as a symbol of faith -leaps into action and despite the fact that time has eroded his old friendship, Noelle may hesitate to ask him to lead the sleuth dogs on their way.
