The Missing Half by Ashley Flowers, 272 pages
Since her sister, Kasey, went missing several years earlier, Nic has been having a rough time, stuck in a dead-end job and fighting alcoholism. But then Jenna walks into her life, offering a new sense of purpose. Jenna's sister, Jules, disappeared not long before Kasey did, and Jenna is convinced that she and Nic can do what the police were unable to accomplish and find their sisters. However, as they go further and further down the rabbit hole of investigation, Nic becomes even more unstable and unpredictable, making questionable choices and taking untold risks in her quest to find Kasey.
This was a twisty thriller with a very unexpected ending. It's a solid tale, with a few credibility-stretching moments (I had trouble believing that Nic and Jenna could find obvious clues that the authorities overlooked years earlier), though it doesn't really stand out from the crowd of thrillers that come out every year.
