“You'd be amazed how many people do that – disappear as if into thin air. They leave doors open behind them, food on the counter, their shoes by the door. It doesn't seem possible, but it is.”

GoodReads Synopsis:

The secrets lurking in a rundown roadside motel ensnare a young woman, just as they did her aunt thirty-five years before, in this new atmospheric suspense novel from the national bestselling and award-winning author of The Broken Girls.

My Review:

Viv goes missing in 1982 from a small town in upstate New York. Presumed dead for 35 years, her niece Carly travels to Fell, NY to get answers about her disappearance.

The story centers. around a run-down motel where Viv worked while in Fell -- she was in search of New York City. Viv worked the overnight shift and when she vanished, it was like life in the town just kept going and no one batted an eye at trying to find the missing woman. Not just Viv but the other missing women in town didn't get a fair shake either!

The motel holds its own secrets and is the center of all the hoopla in town but, there is also a serial killer on the loose. Girls are found dead all over town and not a single cop is putting forth any good cop work to find the killer. Viv did more cop work than actually, paid cops.

Supernatural. Ghosts. Spirits. All-around strange people. I could have done without the supernatural aspect of this story, it was sloppy and unnecessary. I get it, Viv couldn't have been a victim of the serial killer because that is obvious but everything else was poorly written and fleshed out.

Heather. Callum. All of them, are unnecessary. Not really true-crime, not really a thriller, more like a sci-fi mystery.

One-Word Summary: Interesting

“I think it’s instructive to be awake in the middle of the night every once in a while. To really see what you’re missing while you’re usually sleeping.”

The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James

I really enjoyed this book. It was well-written and well paced, and it had both a mystery AND ghosts. This book was a good reminder to me that stories that skip between time periods can actually be good and not give too much away, which is a feeling I've had a lot this year when reading books with multiple storylines in different times. Here, it's used with great effect.

I'm not sure if I'd classify this as a thriller or a mystery, because it's both, but I'm a fan of both of those genres, and it excels in both ways.

I was excited that I enjoyed this book as much as I did, because St. James has quite a few titles, and this was only the first one I read by her, so I have a lot ahead of me to look forward to.

I glanced at Heather. She was perked up, her face tight and serious. There are so many of them, she'd said when I first met her, and when I asked her what she meant, she said, Dead girls.

Absolutly stunning mystery with a dash of the supernatural. Haunting story, great atmosphere and relatable narrators. I had the superbly done audiobook of this.

Perfect for the cold, foggy season
