Set in the town of Henbane, this novel tracks the progress of Lucy Dane trying to find out what happened to her friend Cheri and to her own mother who disappeared when she was a baby. The narrative is split between the past with Lila, Lucy's mother narrating, and Lucy narrating in the present. Family secrets are revealed as the plot progresses with an explosive ending.
Laura McHugh is a Missouri author (a category that might have been a better wildcard category instead of Gaiman). While reviewers want to compare the book with Gillian Flynn's novel, it really isn't that similar but is still an enjoyable read.
