When Sera Fleece’s favourite true crime podcaster Rachel Bard disappears, she fears her idol has been kidnapped or worse. She becomes convinced Rachel has left behind a series of clues for her to save her. Sera sets out on a road trip to Rachel’s hometown determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, but what she finds there is nothing like what she expects in this fascinating and compulsive thriller.
If I Disappear is a novel to immerse yourself in completely. There is a constant feeling of dread and despair as Sera continues on her quest to find Rachel. None of the characters are entirely trustworthy, including the narrator, but you can’t help but give yourself up to her somewhat confusing and unsettling thoughts. Sera leads you down a path you’re not entirely sure you want to go down, but once you start there’s no way to stop! Recommended.
From the publisher:
When her favorite true crime podcast host goes
missing, an adrift young woman sets out to investigate and plunges headfirst
into the wild backcountry of Northern California and her own dangerous
obsession.
Sera loves true crime podcasts. They give her a sense of control
in a world where women just like her disappear daily. She's sure they are
preparing her for something. So when Rachel, her favorite podcast host, goes
missing, Sera knows it's time to act. Rachel has always taught her to trust her
instincts.
Sera follows the clues hidden in the episodes to an isolated ranch outside
Rachel's small hometown to begin her search. She's convinced her investigation
will make Rachel so proud. But the more Sera digs into this unfamiliar world,
the more off things start to feel. Because Rachel is not the first woman to
vanish from the ranch, and she won't be the last...
Rachel did try to warn her.
