I just finished The Neighbor: A Detective D. D. Warren Novel by Lisa Gardner, and wow, what a ride! This book had me hooked from the very first chapter. It starts with the sudden disappearance of Sandra Jones, a young mother who seemingly vanishes without a trace. Her husband, Jason, is secretive and uncooperative, their marriage isn’t as perfect as it seems, and their four-year-old daughter may know more than she lets on. Enter Detective D.D. Warren, who is determined to uncover the truth, but with every clue, the case gets more unsettling.
What I loved most about this book is how Gardner keeps you second-guessing everything. Every character feels unreliable, and just when I thought I had it figured out, she threw in a twist that completely changed my perspective. The psychological depth of the story adds an eerie, almost claustrophobic feeling, like you’re trapped in the mystery yourself.
My only minor complaint is that the pacing starts off a little slow, but once it picks up, it’s impossible to put down. The ending? Let’s just say I’m still thinking about it! If you love dark, twisty thrillers that keep you guessing until the last page, this one is definitely worth reading.
