Moment in Time

This book begins eight years after the events in In an Instant occurred. In that book there is a terrible, haunting, tragic accident which changed Mo Kaminski’s and Chloe Miller’s lives. Now another terrible event is going to change their lives yet again. The two women share an apartment with their friend, Hazel and their lives are going well until the night, Hazel is drugged and raped. Shortly after, she disappears and the man who sexually assaulted her is found drugged and beaten. Mo and Chloe go searching for their friend, but will they find her? Who attacked her rapist? Will justice be served?

First off, if you have not read In an Instant, you need not worry. This book stands on its own, but if you have read it, you get to see what some of the characters are doing now. Rape is a difficult subject and may be a trigger for some.

I enjoyed this book and found it to be worthwhile but did not feel as invested as I had thought I would. I can’t quite put my finger on why. Regardless, this is a solid book, and many are enjoying it more than I did, so please read their reviews as well.

Redfern is such a gifted writer and storyteller. Make sure not to close this book before reading her author’s note at the end. I love that she shares with readers what leads her to write what she writes. I always find this to be a nice touch.

I look forward to what she writes next.

Thank you to Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own
