It was utterly addictive and I was unable to put it down. … So I may have repeated that more than once… Until I finished the whole novel. Oh look, there’s only eight pages until the next chapter. At the end of every chapter I always thought: Just one more. Not only did it draw me in from the very first page, but it refused to let me go. The Leaving was definitely one of the most thrilling books I’ve read all year. Most of all Max’s sister Avery, who needs to find her brother - dead or alive - and it’s buying this whole memory-loss story. Neither of them remember the sixth victim, Max. Lucas remembers Scarlett, too, except they’re entirely unable to recall where they’ve been or what happened to them. Scarlett comes home and finds a mum she barely recognises, and tried to be the person everyone expects her to be. After all that time, the people left behind moved on, or tried to. Eleven years later, five come back - with no idea of where they’ve been.Įleven years ago, six kindergarteners went missing without a trace. The Leaving is a suspenseful and intriguing novel, written by Tara Altebrando.
