Long Gone by Alafair Burke

After being laid off for months, Alice finally finds a perfect job.  At least it was shaping up that way until her employer got murdered in the art galley...


HarperCollins Publishers sent me an ARC of this book for review.  It is being published this month, so check with your local bookstore for a copy.


Alice's family is a family of secrets.  Some are not so well hidden, but we don't talk about them.  It's how all these secrets tie together and come back to haunt them that makes the core of this story.


The plot is complex, people from all walks of life get involved, and it doesn't have a particularly happy ending.  But it will keep you glued to the story as you watch the pieces unfold and see the consequences of actions done without much thought.


I bet it won't take you too long to read this book.  And, if you'd like my ARC, comment here on the blog and then email me at info at bookfaerie.com with your name AND address and tell me why you'd like to read it.


Happy reading.
