Missing Molly

Product Information

And now with the staffs’ podcast choice made, Rachel is suddenly griped with fear. She can’t let this happen! After all, Molly Forster is hiding in plain sight. Wow !!! This one keeps you guessing and makes you think, 'Oh, its only three in the morning and I listen to just one more short chapter ...' Molly herself was marginally interesting. But unfortunately an interesting main character does not a good book make. Especially if that is the ONLY positive quality.

Missing Molly is an entertaining psychological thriller that features a pile of unique, well developed characters and a current theme that fits with the times. Some of it is unbelievable and at times the relationships fell flat, but I was swept up in this story, desperate to know why Rachel had left her name behind and had done so much to hide it. I really appreciated her weakening resolve to keep it quiet and loved how the mystery finally was revealed to the characters only at the very end.Thank you, Pikko's House, The Last Bureau, and NetGalley, for the ARC I was given of Missing Molly by Natalie Barelli. My rating and review are nothing but honest and non-biased.

And, when the penultimate moment finally arrived, the best friend completely brushed Molly/Rachel off, as though she were a child and not a 28 year old woman with good instincts. Another plot hole to me is earlier in the book when Rachel/Molly pretends to be a friend of a dead Molly Foster on the internet and another stranger chimes in and says that he is a detective. The entire office decides to believe the stranger claiming to be a detective but not the stranger claiming to be a friend of Molly Foster. Why? They have no reason to believe or doubt either of them. They’re going to find Molly Forster, whose parents and older sister were murdered fifteen year ago when she was a child. Molly has been missing ever since. The problem is that Rachel Holloway is Molly Forster and there’s a good reason why she doesn’t want to be found. The most glaring hole for me is the murder that is the basis of this book. A family got murdered by the police commissioner's son. The youngest daughter ran out of the house, escaped the murderer twice, ran to the police station, and told the police commissioner who the true murderer was. The commissioner calmed her down then called his son over to "take care of it". The girl overheard the call, got spooked, and bolted, never to be seen again.Four: There are so many convenient coincidences that seem to happen (and I try not to give the plot away here). Like people just happen to be at the place where the evidence is?

The team at the newspaper was about to dig open the unsolved case of “Missing Molly”. ( 15 year old case) When I first saw the cover for Missing Molly I wasn’t overly interested in the book as it’s fairly generic and doesn’t really capture your imagination. The blurb, however, really grabbed my attention and I had to read it.Are you telling me that a whole police station worth of cops somehow missed a 12-year-old coming into the station, crying and covered in blood? The same girl who had gone missing, same girl whose family had been found murdered, same girl who everyone had been looking for? Everyone somehow just didn't pay attention to this girl coming in, just didn't hear her say who the killer was, somehow missed her run out again? Really? Nevermind the entire police station, you're telling me somehow all the streets that she passed by on her way to the police station and on her way leaving the police station and leaving the town just happened to be empty of people? That's quite a conspiracy theory right there. Rachel knows why because she IS Molly. She now has a boyfriend and a daughter and is scared for them if the truth comes out. At first she tries to sabotage the podcasts but later she gets on board by revealing the truth. Only her boyfriend doesn't believe her.
