Harlequin BLog Tour - Before He Vanished

 Before He Vanished - Debra Webb

Halle Lane is a reporter who has returned home after a divorce to try and revive her career as a reporter. She has an idea for a story that would get her back in the papers, but she will need to convince the mother of her best friend to give her an interview. Her best friend Andy disappeared when he was a child with no clues as to his whereabouts. Twenty five years later, there are still no leads, but Halle wants to tell his story to honor his memory.

Liam is working at his family’s vineyard when he gets an anonymous envelope in the mail. Inside is a new article about a missing boy from twenty five years ago with a photo. When Liam looks at the photo, he recognizes himself…how could this be? And who sent the article? Liam decides to travel to the town where this boy disappeared to find some answers.

When Halle meets Liam, she immediately knows that he is Andy, but how did he just show up in town? Halle and Liam quickly team up to find some answers. Can she prove to him that he is the lost boy? When someone gets murdered, things quickly heat up and can they figure out what really happened so long ago?

I love the mystery of the story as well as the characters. This book is the sixth in the series, and not reading the previous books, I had no problem reading the book as a stand a lone novel. It had all the ingredients to tell a brilliant story, love, loss, intrigue and murder. I couldn’t put this book down and read it in one day. Now I’m off to find the first books in the series to catch up. Thank you so much to the author, Debra Webb, Harlequin and Netgalley for an advanced copy of the book to read and review. It was fabulous.

Thank you so much for stopping by the farmhouse. Lynn
