Book Review: Picking Up The Pieces
Summary: 4 Stars
NO TIME FOR GOODBYE starts as the average teenager's dream come true - a 14-year-old girl wakes up after a fight with her family to find that they've disappeared without a trace. The next 300 pages consists of her attempts, 25 years later, to determine what happened and her husband's attempts to help her deal with her past.
Refreshingly for a mystery, this story unspools in surprising, interesting ways. I wasn't able to guess what would happen 100 pages, or even 50 pages, ahead. While Linwood Barclay is a somewhat repetitive and formulaic author, the story told is so intricate that literary flaws can be forgiven. The characters are interesting, varied and well-drawn, and you're never quite sure whom to trust or what to believe.

Cynthia is happily married with a young daughter, a new family. But the story of her old family isn't over. A strange car in the neighborhood, untraceable phone calls, ominous "gifts"-someone has returned to her hometown to finish what was started twenty-five years ago.
