Bestselling Suspense Author Gillian McAllister Presents “Just Another Missing Person”

St. Louis County Library Foundation’s Favorite Author Series and The Novel Neighbor are  pleased to host bestselling suspense author Gillian McAllister for a signing and discussion of her latest thriller, “Just Another Missing Person.”

The event will take place on Tuesday, October 8, 7:00 p.m. at the Clark Family Branch, 1640 S. Lindbergh Blvd, St. Louis MO 63131.

From the author of the Reese’s Book Club Pick and the New York Times bestseller “Wrong Place Wrong Time” comes a new heart-stopping thriller in which a missing-person case unravels deeper, darker secrets that lead a detective to an impossible moral choice.

Twenty-two-year-old Olivia has been missing for one day and counting. She was last seen on CCTV, entering a dead-end alley. And not coming back out again.

Julia, the detective heading up the search for Olivia, thinks she knows what to expect. A desperate family, a ticking clock, and long hours away from her husband and daughter. But she has no idea just how close to home this case is going to get.

Because the criminal at the heart of the disappearance has something she never expected. His weapon isn’t a gun, or a knife: it’s a secret. Her worst one. And her family's safety depends on one thing: Julia must NOT find out what happened to Olivia - and must frame somebody else for her murder.

This clever and surprising thriller is laced with a clever look at family and motherhood, and cements Gillian McAllister as a major talent in the world of suspense and a master of creating ethical dilemmas that show just how murky the distinction between right and wrong can be.

Gillian McAllister is the author of Reese's Book Club Pick “Wrong Place Wrong Time,” “Everything but the Truth,” and several other bestselling thrillers. She is also the creator and co-host of the popular “Honest Authors” podcast.
