MY BOOK BEGINNING: 

New York City-Present Day

"It started the night Hickory was shot to death. Hickory, my dog." Tara looks forlornly at Dr Christie Lind. "Like a, I don't know, a premonition of doom."

56%:

Outside, in the world that was once real, it is raining, a slow, incessant drizzle, settling on her shoulders and hair. More like a Seattle morning than one in New York.

Synopsis:

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Girl at the Border comes a haunting thriller about one woman’s journey into the painful truths threatening to destroy her.

When Tara Peary’s twin sister Sophie goes missing, Tara dives into New York’s underbelly to find her. Sophie is the one person who’s ever truly understood her, and Tara knows her sister isn’t the only one who needs help.

Tara is also on the run emotionally from her complicated childhood. Her memories are threatening to overwhelm her emotions and derail the hunt for Sophie. A psychotherapist keeps her afloat, but when Tara begins dating her therapist’s young tech-millionaire neighbor, she risks losing the only lifelines she has left.

The more Tara uncovers about her sister’s disappearance and the dark side of the rich elite, the less certain of the truth she becomes. As Tara reaches the center of the mystery, spanning from her childhood home in Georgia to a Southern California beach, she has to decide whether the truth is a price she’s willing to pay.

While this book sounds great I am highly disappointed in it. My review will be posted shortly.
