Black Girl Gone

A Twisty Psychological Thriller

By: N'Dia Rae, CN Mabry

Narrated by: Erin Ruth Walker

A gripping psychological thriller about a long-missing woman who returns home after two decades—only to uncover chilling family secrets and realize she may never have been wanted back, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden and Noelle Ihli.

Twenty years ago, seven-year-old Charmaine Tillman vanished without a trace from a crowded school fair. Her disappearance shattered her family, destroyed her father, and turned her mother into a relentless force in the public eye. Her older sister Taylor transformed the tragedy into a media empire built on the desperate hope that one day, Charmaine would come home.

Now, against all odds, Charmaine has returned.

Found miles away with only fragmented memories of the past, she steps back into the world she left behind, a world that moved on without her. But as she settles into the glittering life her family has built in her absence, something feels wrong. The whispers. The forced smiles. The way her mother watches her with unreadable eyes.

The past is buried, but Charmaine can sense it clawing its way to the surface. And the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that some secrets were meant to stay lost.

Because the worst part about coming home is discovering you were never meant to.

Story line and main character very intriguing

Loved the pace for most part, a bit too much filler and wish main protagonist didn't sound like a baby...she was too meek most of the book. It's a great sad, sad tale but great read nevertheless

Loved the twist and turns!

Great mystery, psychological thriller, and story line. I’ll be reading the other book by these authors! Great read!

Unputdownable!!!

Oooh, wow! I loved this book, and the twists just kept coming. Charmaine was abducted at the age of eight and has been missing for 20 years, but she's returned and the secrets right along with her.

I loved the first part because I cared about the characters and was in her corner.

The second half felt forced and I almost couldn’t finish it which was a shame because the first half was so engaging.
