A year and a half ago, Gemma met the love of her life, Danny. Since then, their relationship has been like something out of a dream. But one Friday evening, Gemma returns home to find Danny is nowhere to be seen.
After two days with no word from her husband, Gemma turns to the police. She is horrified with what she discovers – a serial killer is on the loose in Bristol. When she sees the photos of the victims she is even more stunned…the victims all look just like Danny.
But, the detectives aren’t convinced by Gemma’s story. Why has no one apart from Gemma seen or heard from Danny in weeks? Why is there barely a trace of him in their flat? Is she telling them the truth, or are there more secrets and lies in this marriage than meets the eye?

First, I want to thank Jackie Kabler, HarperCollins Publishers LTD. and NetGalley for providing me this book so I can bring you this review.
WOW!! Jackie Kabler took you on an emotional twisty turny roller coaster ride with a shocking ending! When I mean shocking I didn’t see these two events coming!!
Right off the bat Jackie caught my attention with the disappearance of Gemma’s (I so loved that name it is so unique) husband Danny. The author put so much emotion behind what Gemma was feeling and going through during this time. She really captured what it would feel like if your husband went missing.
This wasn’t your average missing person book. Oh no there were two missing persons that both found dead that looked like eachother. How freaky is that?! Plus, no sign of Danny anywhere. The investigation into these three people was intense!
What fascinated me was there was a dating app in this book that was to be better than Tinder. Having been on dating sites myself this one didn’t seem as safe as the others. I would have not used it if it had been real. However, strangely enough all three men including Danny used this site.
This book is filled with tons of secrets, twists and turns, accusations, double lives, nd left to wonder who you can really trust.
