If you like Harlan Coben, you'll love Linwood Barclay."-Peter Robinson, author ofPiece of My Heart "No Time for Goodbyebegins as an intriguing mystery then shifts with a sinister grace into a race-against-time thriller that begs to be read in a single sitting. The surprises will leave you breathless."-Robert Crais "A terrific page-turner that keeps you in suspense until the very end. You sit down with this book and you won't get up until you've turned the last page."-Michael Connelly "No Time for Goodbyeis a high-speed emotional roller-coaster. "No Time for Goodbyejust flies off the page.
And soon she begins to realise that stirring up the past could be the worst mistake she has ever made. And then the letter, a letter which makes no sense and yet chills Cynthia to the core. Then just a few crackpots and scam artists coming out of the woodwork. And so she agrees to take part in a TV documentary revisiting the case, in the hope that somebody somewhere will remember something - or even that her father, mother or brother might finally reach out to her. Were her family murdered? If so, why was she spared? And if they're alive, why did they abandon her in such a cruel way? Now married with a daughter of her own, Cynthia knows that without answers - however shocking they might prove to be - she will never be emotionally or psychologically whole, living in daily fear that her new family will be taken from her just as her first one was.
Twenty-five years later the mystery is no nearer to being solved and Cynthia is still haunted by unanswered questions. At first she just thinks it's weird, then more and more scary, until finally the terrifying reality hits her: in the blink of an eye, without any explanation, her family has simply disappeared. Instead, the house is empty, with no sign of her parents or younger brother Todd. On the morning she will never forget, suburban teenager Cynthia Archer awakes with a nasty hangover and a feeling she is going to have an even nastier confrontation with her mom and dad.
