Book Review: You Were Gone by Tim Weaver

 Calling all my thriller, or thriller wanna, be lovers.  This book is for you.  The cover art clearly explains the whole plot of this book.

I buried you, I mourned you,
But now you are back

David Raker lost his wife eight years ago.  But then a woman walks into a police station claiming to be his wife.  She looks eerily like his wife, she knows quite a bit about their history - things people outside of their marriage wouldn't know.  

She proceeds to tell the police that he had a mental breakdown, as he continues to proclaim that she is not his wife.  A prominent doctor backs her claim.  Then she disappears.  And suddenly, he is a prime suspect in their investigation.

David teeters on the edge; DID he have a breakdown?  DID his wife die; or did he ever have a wife?  What the hell is going on?

This story was tightly woven and there are twists that are definitely unexpected and the story was masterfully told.

Big thumbs up.  You should definitely read it.
