Three Women Disappear had a strong Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie / Strangers on a Train feel to the story. However, will the "real killer or killers" get away with the murder? I quite liked this story as it was written well and fast-paced despite having a high number of characters and their viewpoints. As the book goes along, we learn that each of these women has a strong motive to start fresh and it looks like everybody involved in writing their own story and finding a perfect scapegoat to go down for the murder of Anthony Costello. Each woman though is telling their events of what happened and not pointing the blame at themselves. In Three Women Disappear we learn that a mob accountant named Anthony Costello has been killed and the three main suspects were the women in his life - his current wife Anna, his chef, and the wife of a police detective Sarah and a new immigrant, his maid Serena. This book contained two mystery stories - one full-length novel "Three Women Disappear" and a bonus novella called "Come and Get Us". A new mystery by James Patterson and a new unknown author Shan Serafin. Like always, how much is because of the co-author, who knows? I need to read more of Shan Serafin to reach a conclusion.As we settle into 2021 with the date being the 2nd January 2021, I bring to you my first review for 2021.
On my Patterson roller-coaster ride, this is one of the highlights. I won't give away the twists, but I didn't see them all coming. I thought for a moment this book would go in that direction. In the movie they did this by accusing each other to create reasonable doubt. The plot of the movie was two women were both suspects in a murder, and they both evade arrest. It reminded me of a movie I once watched, of which the name now escapes me. The plot seemed well planned, the characters were convincing and the mystery wasn't bad at all. It unraveled a little towards the end, but for the most part everything was spot on. You feel like you're trying to catch your breath when you read this. I really liked the twists and the fast pace. It still could have been a little better, maybe a little tighter, but when I weigh up the pros and cons, I still only end up with a minor con.įor that, I have to rate this higher and give it five stars this time. It's strange how this time the ending felt more complete. I enjoyed this even more the second time, and I even enjoyed the ending more. I wanted to read this again, and when I was the library a couple of weeks ago it was there.
