While Adam and his daughter are out rowing, Sophie gets kidnapped right before Adam’s eyes, and all he can do is watch helplessly from the middle of the lake. They’ve rented one of three cottages by a lake. It jumps right into the crime without wasting time.Īdam, Sophie, and their three-year-old daughter Aubrey are out for a short vacation in downtown Seattle. And it happens within the first few pages. Either the author intended it to be that way, or I’m getting really good at the science of detection. I was disappointed that I was able to solve the crime before the lead detective in the novel. But I must say after a certain point, I kinda figured out where the book was heading. The first 100 or so pages make for a good whodunnit. And I immediately bought the Kindle version of it. Though everything in that list caught my eye, I was looking for a nice crime/thriller story, and this one seemed to fit right in. While browsing through Goodreads for my next read, I saw that Lying Next to Me was one among the top 20 books read in September. That’s the word I’d use to summarize this book.
