Description

Following up her instant New York Times bestseller, A Flicker in the Dark, Stacy Willingham delivers a totally gripping thriller about a desperate mother with a troubled past in All the Dangerous Things.

One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally.

Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year.

Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever. In hopes of jarring loose a new witness or buried clue, she agrees to be interviewed by a true-crime podcaster—but his interest in Isabelle's past makes her nervous. His incessant questioning paired with her severe insomnia has brought up uncomfortable memories from her own childhood, making Isabelle start to doubt her recollection of the night of Mason’s disappearance, as well as second-guess who she can trust... including herself. But she is determined to figure out the truth no matter where it leads.

    This story could be most every woman’s story or that of a loved one. This is a novel both rich in depth and characters whose human frailty captures one from beginning to the last word written.

    I thought it had a very slow beginning. The last few chapters is where everything came together and it all made sense! But the beginning was very slow. Great book overall.
  • Took FOREVER to gain my attention

    I was excited to read this book after I read Flicker in the Dark. I found this book hard to get into. Towards the final chapters the book picked up and enjoyed the ending.

    This story starts out a little slow and takes a while to get to the point but I promise it’s worth the wait. The plot twist is not something you see coming. You never know who you can trust and what people will do to ones they say they love. You never see it coming with Ben, Waylon, Valerie, anyone… worth a read!!
  • So good!
