Description

The house was deathly quiet. That was the first sign that something was terribly wrong. Fourteen-year-old Cynthia Bigge woke that morning to find herself alone. Her family - mother, father, and brother - had vanished without a word, without a note, without a trace. Twenty-five years later, Cynthia is still looking for answers. Now she is about to learn the devastating truth.

Cynthia and Terry Archer still live in Milford, Connecticut, not far from the old Bigge house on Hickory Street. With a solid marriage and a young daughter, the Archers seem on track for a successful future. But the questions raised by Cynthia's past still haunt her, and her obsession with finding the answers threatens to destroy everything they've worked for. For Cynthia, there can be no closure until she finds out why her family disappeared - and how they could have left her behind.

Terry thinks the segment on the popular TV crime-stopper program Deadline is a mistake. But his wife hopes that someone watching will have a lead to her missing family. Sure enough, it's Cynthia who spots the strange car cruising the neighborhood, hears the untraceable phone calls, and discovers the ominous "gifts." And as Cynthia's nerves begin to unravel, no one's innocence is guaranteed, not even her own.

By the time the first body is found, it's clear that her past is more of a mystery than she ever imagined - or may ever survive. Someone has returned to this Connecticut town to finish what was started 25 years ago. And by the time Terry and Cynthia discover the killer's shocking identity, it will be too late even for goodbye.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Skilled characterization and convincing dialogue." (Publishers Weekly)

"No Time for Goodbye just flies off the page. It's a one-sit thriller. You sit down with this book and you won't get up until you've turned the last page." (Michael Connelly)

"A mystery masterpiece is read by a master narrator.... [Narrator Christopher] Lane exploits Barclay’s breathtaking momentum, building to an edge-of-the-seat climax and superbly portraying every character - killers, detectives, friends, a memorable mobster, and his comical gang. Not to be missed!" (AudioFile)

Unnecessarily dragging out certain non impactful details. Could’ve skipped some parts reducing the overall story length.

Difficult to hear when performer was imitating older woman. Overall length was unnecessary, too much attention given to n unimportant parts.

Good story and narration

A good story with twists and turns that take the reader on a wild ride. Narration is good with character voices that are recognizable. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I’d recommend it to readers who enjoy a mystery story.

STRAIGHTFORWARD ENTERTAINMENT

After struggling through a slew of multi-layered British mysteries and suspense, this was a refreshing change. What I liked about it was the conversational tone of the dialogue. It does lack intricate subplots and nuanced character, however. Like a lot of American mysteries, it's one-dimensional, simplistic, straightforward and easy to read. I was ready for a non-intellectual experience that was purely entertaining. I did object to the bad mother/villain stereotype, leading poor innocent men to their downfall. That's simplicity for the simple.

But, I liked it, anyway.

Twists & Turns!

The story had a slow start and I almost gave up on it but certainly glad I hadn't. It had quite a few twists and turns that kept me wanting to listen to more and more. The performance of the narrator was captivating and I enjoyed his performance immensley. I highly recommend this audio book.

An Enjoyable Read

15 years on and “No Time for Goodbye” still packs a punch. It drags a bit, about three-quarters of the way through, but that shouldn’t put you off a well-written mystery.
