A "propulsive page-turner" (Alyssa Cole) and "thriller not to be missed" (Michael Connelly) from the award-winning author of Like a Sister, in which a woman thinks she’s waking up to a romantic vacation—only to find a body in her rental home and her boyfriend gone.

The truth is never skin deep.
 
It was supposed to be a romantic getaway weekend in New York City. Breanna’s new boyfriend, Ty, took care of everything—the train tickets, the dinner reservations, the rented four-story luxury rowhouse in Jersey City with a beautiful view of the Manhattan skyline. But when Bree comes downstairs their final morning, she’s shocked. There’s a stranger laying dead in the foyer, and Ty is nowhere to be found.
 
A Black woman alone in a new city, Bree is stranded and out of her depth—especially when it becomes clear the dead woman is none other than Janelle Beckett, the missing woman the entire Internet has become obsessed with. There’s only one person Bree can turn to: her ex-best friend, a lawyer with whom she shares a very complicated past. As the police and a social media mob close in, all looking for #JusticeForJanelle, Bree realizes that the only way she can help Ty—or herself—is to figure out what really happened that last night.
 
But when people only see what they want to see, can she uncover the truth hiding in plain sight?

"Fantastic. Only Garrett could craft a tale so adroitly attuned to our everyday fears." —S. A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of All the Sinners Bleed

“Taut, suspenseful, and packed with heart.” —Meg Gardiner, New York Times bestselling author of Heat 2

"Expertly mixes sorrow and grief, humor and identity, with the chaos of social media." —Rachel Howzell Hall, New York Times bestselling author of What Never Happened

"Bree is unforgettable . . . you are in for such a ride." —Rachel Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of The Villa

Reviews

“You never know what’s coming next in Missing White Woman. Kellye Garrett writes with an unstoppable momentum and cultural edge that makes this a thriller not to be missed.”—Michael Connelly, New York Times bestselling author "Missing White Woman is a compulsive page-turner with plenty of twists and turns you won't see coming. Kellye Garrett is a rising star, and Missing White Woman is her best one yet."—Harlan Coben, New York Times bestselling author “Kellye Garrett has done it again with Missing White Woman—she’s given us a heroine that could easily be our BFF, sister, or daughter, as well as a twisty plot and relationships that are complicated and authentic. Garrett expertly mixes sorrow and grief, humor and identity with the chaos of social media, making this suspense novel a propulsive read. Garrett remains a writer to watch.”—Rachel Howzell Hall, New York Times bestselling author of We Lie Here "Only a writer like Kellye Garrett could craft a tale so adroitly attuned to our everyday fears while also tapping the zeitgeist of infamy and identity facing all of us but especially black women in a world that so often puts them on the bottom rung of society's ladder. A fantastic thriller and amazing book!"—S.A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of All the Sinners Bleed, Razorblade Tears, and Blacktop Wasteland “With Missing White Woman, Kellye Garrett raises her already sky-high game to a new level. Taut, suspenseful, and packed with heart, devious twists, and unforgettable characters, this novel grabbed me tight and wouldn’t let go. A single-sitting read.”—Meg Gardiner, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Heat 2Like A Sister ensured Kellye Garrett will always be on my autobuy list, and I guarantee that Missing White Woman will shoot her to the top of yours, too. Bree is an unforgettable heroine, the kind of character you're invested in from her first line, and Garrett's take on the toxic blend of social media and true crime is maybe the best and most nuanced look at this particular phenomenon I've read. You are in for such a ride!” —Rachel Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of The Villa Praise for Like A Sister: “Kellye Garrett is impressive on paper and, in conversation, a force of nature… [Like a Sister is a] briskly plotted, socially astute new thriller.”—The Los Angeles Times "A mystery that has everything I love most about the genre: an intriguing set up; an absorbing storyline that kept me guessing; a satisfying ending; and most of all, incredibly well developed characters that I kept thinking about long after I finished the book. I want everyone I know to read it so we can talk about it.’”—Jasmine Guillory, The Today Show “Noir for the media-struck generation . . . Character and voice mesh with Like a Sister's explorations of race, class and family in an arresting combination.”—NPR.org “A crackling  domestic suspense that has you turning the pages to see what happens next. . . . Garrett's wry humor, attention to detail, and deft pacing are a tension wire pulled taut against the compelling mystery driving the novel; Like A Sister is one of those books that's best prepared for ahead of time, because once you pick it up, it will be difficult to put down.”—Alyssa Cole, Entertainment Weekly “Garrett is at the top of her game with this propulsive page-turner that interrogates the intersection of true crime fandom, social media sleuthing, and race in America. Sharp and incisive prose, tight plotting, unexpected twists, and a poignant exploration of friendship and family make Missing White Woman a must-read.”—Alyssa Cole, New York Times bestselling author of When No One Is Watching Expand reviews
