Local Woman Missing is a thriller. I bought my copy new.
Review:
Shelby Tebow is the first person to go missing. Then Meredith Dickey and her young daughter, Delilah, also disappear not far from where Shelby was last seen. The case goes cold, until, 11 years later, Delilah is found. She was apparently kept in someone's basement all that time.
This follows several POVs. In the past, there's Meredith, who it turns out was Shelby's doula, and Kate, a neighbor of Meredith's. In the present, there's Delilah (her escape) and Leo, Meredith's son. We learned that someone was following Meredith and sending her threatening texts. She was also increasingly involved with one of her clients, Shelby, and her less-than-rosy situation.
This was twisty in a way that wasn't too over-the-top. That said, the situation and characters weren't really that memorable to me and didn't grab me as much as they could have. I'm still looking forward to trying Kubica's other books, though.
