About this audiobook
How can you lie when you can't remember the truth?
When 17-year-old Hunter Gifford wakes up in the hospital on the night of homecoming, he’s shocked to learn he and his girlfriend, Chloe Summers, have been in a terrible car accident. Hunter has no memory of the crash, and his shock
turns to horror when he is told Chloe’s blood has been found in the car, but she has disappeared.
Back at school, his fellow students taunt him, and his former best friend starts making a true-crime documentary about the case—one that points the finger directly at Hunter. And just when things can’t get any worse, Chloe’s mother
stands in front of the entire town at a candlelight vigil and accuses Hunter of murder.
Under mounting pressure from the police, Hunter takes matters into his own hands by questioning anyone who might know the truth and posting videos to prove his innocence. When Hunter learns he and Chloe were seen arguing loudly
outside the dance, he faces a sickening possibility: Was he angry enough to kill the person he loved?

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting and fast-paced, but ultimately kind of dark and depressing. Some loose ends as well. Did enjoy the character interactions in the main family unit. Narration good except for weird intonation at the end of any question.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Pretty good book. I figured it out pretty early on, but I definitely second guessed myself for a bit. Glad I stumbled upon this book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another excellent book by David Bell. His first attempt at a YA book does not disappoint the adult reader. This is a book to devour if you like mystery/thrillers.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Hunter Gifford has been in a car accident with his girlfriend Chloe Summers. Unfortunately, Hunter does not remember anything other than arriving at Homecoming, and Chloe is no where to be found. The community is sure Hunter is hiding something. What did happen to Chloe that night? Where is she? Did Hunter kill her because he was angry? Or did something else happen on that fateful night?Fast read.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5When 17=year-old Hunter wakes up in hospital on the night of prom, he can’t remember anything of the evening. He learns he had been in a car accident and had somehow made his way to the hospital alone. But he hadn’t been alone in the car. His girlfriend had been in the car with him but now she’s missing. Has she wandered away hurt and confused or is it something much much worse and was Hunter involved in her disappearance?She’s Gone by David Bell is one heck of a page-turner. It gripped me from the first page and it kept me guessing right to the end. I couldn’t put it down until I found out what happened. It’s aimed a YA audience but it definitely has appeal for older readers. A definite high recommendation from me.. Thanks to Netgalley and Sourcebooks for the opportunity to read ths book in exchange for an honest review.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Review of Advance Reader’s Edition eBookWhen seventeen-year-old Hunter Gifford wakes up in the hospital, he has no memory of what happened to him. He’s told that he and his girlfriend, Chloe Summers, were in a car crash, but he has no memory of the accident. And while he’s sustained a concussion, he’s more worried about his girlfriend. Chloe has disappeared.Hunter returns to school, but some of the other students are derisive; they seem to believe that Hunter killed Chloe. Things go from bad to worse when, at a candlelight vigil for Chloe, Lisa Summers accuses Hunter of murdering her daughter. Hunter decides to do some sleuthing of his own and begins questioning anyone who might have any idea of what happened to Chloe. Although he doesn’t remember arguing with her at the homecoming dance, he learns that he did. Could Hunter be responsible for Chloe’s disappearance? Did he kill the girl he claims to love?=========Teens and young adults are the target audience for this captivating story of high school, homecoming, and a missing girl. The plot takes several unexpected twists as the unfolding story reveals a few surprises. The action moves along at a brisk pace; short chapters keep the suspense building.A strong sense of place, well-defined characters, and an immersive story all combine to pull the reader into the telling of the tale from the outset. Woven into the mystery are some important messages for the young adult readers regarding the handling of difficult situations, giving consent, dealing with unwanted attention, and supporting friends. All lead to an explosive denouement readers simply won’t be expecting. Don’t miss this one.Highly recommended.I received a free copy of this eBook from SOURCEBOOKS Fire and NetGalley#ShesGone #NetGalley
