The message has disappeared. So has my best friend.
When I read the message from my best friend Leona, I sense the danger screaming from every word.
Can’t speak. Don’t text or call. Please just come.
I race to her house, thinking about the circle of bruises I saw on her wrist days earlier. But when she opens the door, Leona is smiling, her husband’s arm tightly around her narrow shoulders, her little girl’s laughter echoing from the living room.
She says she never sent me a message and she’s fine. And when I look at my phone, the message is deleted.
But six hours later, the police are at my door. Leona and her family have disappeared, their dinner burned, blood all over the kitchen.
My best friend and her beautiful family are missing. I was the last one to see them alive…
A completely gripping and addictive thriller from the number 1 ebook bestselling author K.L. Slater, Message Deleted will have you glued to the pages until the very last twist. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Freida McFadden.
