She never returns.Dad tells Jared and Emily that their mom took off, for good this time. Emily is heartbroken, but Jared heard something that night. He's not sure entirely what, but he knows it gave him chills, enough to put up his guard and cover his suspicions, at least until he really knows what he heard. He can't risk losing the only parent he has left...Emily has a secret of her own. She turns her emotional pain on herself, and sometimes she goes a little too far. She's terrified that someone will find out and send her away, yet she can't seem to stopâ??especially as her heartbreak over her mom's betrayal begins to weigh on her.Then the police show up on their doorstep. Mom's car is discovered, abandoned and covered in blood. Jared and Emily need answers...and if no one will tell them what's going on, they're going to find out for themselves. Disappeared by Lucienne Diver is a gripping YA suspense with a twist that readers won't see coming. It will appeal to fans of One of Us Is Lying by Karen M.

Intense. Tension building throughout.
YA mystery thriller with deep, mature themes. Alternating points of view of the brother and sister, Jared and Emily.
They are each under such pressure. Jared feels he needs to find out what happened to his mother and protect Emily at all costs. Emily feels she needs to be the peacemaker but without her mother, everyone is on edge. Why did their mother leave them? Emily turns inward to manage her pain.
To avoid spoilers, I don’t want to say too much more but this story has heart, pain and solid family love. Tears and relief.
I hesitated to add the YA because the issues faced were more than that but Jared and Emily are teens so it was necessary to include.
I will recommend this to anyone that likes a good thriller. ( )
