What The Reviewers Say
Positive Maggie Boyd,
All About Romance
A tale of a missing girl, a mother’s shattered life and the gradual rebuilding of a family, this twisting, turning mystery will have you reading into the wee hours of the morning ... The author does an excellent job of getting the reader invested in the characters ... Then She Was Gone is a near perfect novel of suspense.

Positive Publishers Weekly
More than a whiff of The Lovely Bones wafts through this haunting domestic noir ... Skillfully told by several narrators (some of them ghostly), Jewell’s gripping novel transcends its plot improbabilities to connect with an emotionally resonant story of loss, grief, and renewal.

Mixed Kirkus
Jewell’s (I Found You, 2017, etc.) latest thriller moves at a brisk pace even as she plays with narrative structure ... the structure also contributes to how deeply disturbing the story becomes. At times, the characters and the emotional core of the events are almost obscured by such quick maneuvering through the weighty plot.
