If Something Happens to Me by Alex Finlay

It's been five years since the night Allison was taken, Ryan's only memory of the car door yanked open, then blackness until he woke up in a field... alone. With no clues other than a vague memory of a nondescript man with both pinkie fingers missing, the case has gone cold, but many in his hometown still blame him, forcing him to change his name. But now, Allison's car has been discovered at the bottom of a lake with two unknown bodies and an envelope with the words, "If something happens to me" written in the outside in Allison's handwriting. What really happened that night?
In chapters told from the perspective of many different characters, the pieces of the puzzle slowly start to fall into place. There are so many seemingly unconnected storylines until that aha moment when you start to understand, and then can't stop flying through the pages to find out what happens. This is my first book by this author and I loved it! I highly recommend to any thriller lover!
Thanks to St. Martin's Press through Netgalley for the advance copy of this book. The opinions in this review are my own and given voluntarily.
