The Disappearing – Lori Roy – Edgar Worthy!
The Disappearing – Lori Roy Lori Roy’s first novel Bent Road was published in 2011. In 2012 it won an Edgar Award for best first novel. Lori’s third book Let Me Die in His Footsteps was published in 2015. It won an Edgar for Best Novel in 2016. That win made Lori thee first woman to win An Edgar Allen Poe Award for both Best First Novel and Best Novel. She’s only the third person to do it overall! Her latest release The Disappearing was released last year to rave reviews. After finishing the book the other day I’m ready to join that group who have raved about the book. While it’s not the type of book I usually read I truly enjoyed the book. About The Disappearing The Disappearing tells the story of Lane Fielding ,who after twenty years away, has returned to her hometown in Florida. Lane had fled her hometown partially to escape from her father’s sins as the former director of an infamous boys school. The sins included.severely beating and maybe killing boys who were sent there. Lane also fled to escape her own past! The story opens with the disappearance of a Florida State coed who had been working at the Fielding Plantation. This disappearance is eerily similar to Lane’s own disappearance. And when Lane’s daughter Annalee disappears the Fielding family’s lives are turned upside down. Could it be revenge for all their pasts sins? Praise for The Disappearing Ok so I can tell you how…
