Invisible Girl: A Novel

Written by Lisa Jewell

Narrated by Donna Banya, Katherine Kelly and Connor Swindells

AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“I absolutely loved Invisible Girl—Lisa Jewell has a way of combining furiously twisty, utterly gripping plots with wonderfully rich characterization—she has such compassion for her characters, and we feel we know them utterly… A triumph!” —Lucy Foley, New York Times bestselling author

The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Then She Was Gone returns with an intricate thriller about a young woman’s disappearance and a group of strangers whose lives intersect in its wake.

Young Saffyre Maddox spent three years under the care of renowned child psychologist Roan Fours. When Dr. Fours decides their sessions should end, Saffyre feels abandoned. She begins looking for ways to connect with him, from waiting outside his office to walking through his neighborhood late at night. She soon learns more than she ever wanted to about Roan and his deceptively perfect family life. On a chilly Valentine’s night, Saffyre will disappear, taking any secrets she has learned with her.

Owen Pick’s life is falling apart. In his thirties and living in his aunt’s spare bedroom, he has just been suspended from his job as a teacher after accusations of sexual misconduct—accusations he strongly denies. Searching for professional advice online, he is inadvertently sucked into the dark world of incel forums, where he meets a charismatic and mysterious figure.

Owen lives across the street from the Fours family. The Fours have a bad feeling about their neighbor; Owen is a bit creepy and suspect and their teenaged daughter swears he followed her home from the train station one night. Could Owen be responsible? What happened to the beautiful missing Saffyre, and does her disappearance truly connect them all?

Evocative, vivid, and unputdownable, Lisa Jewell’s latest thriller is another “haunting, atmospheric, stay-up-way-too-late read” (Megan Miranda, New York Times bestselling author).

Reviews for Invisible Girl

It was really well put. You have three different characters that has you bouncing from one to another thinking one of them is guilty.

Such a great book!!! A most read. All will be known in time.

[Michael Tracy · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

What a fantastic story. Really great characters. Story flows together very well. In my opinion, this story is about the life changing aspect of kindness, as well as, what a resolution of a wrong committed against someone can do for a person’s sense of value.

Loved this book!

[Denise Delagarza Garza · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

It was boring. Took to long to get to

[Holly Montgomery · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This book was a tiny bit slow for me in the beginning. But a few chapters in, I was hooked! Jewel is such an amazing story teller and this book was no different. Bravo!

[Jen Kroeger · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Excellent. I didn't want to turn off the audiobook until it was 100% done!!

[F Brugnano · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

An 'edge of your seat, keep you up at night' listen! Excellent narrators (3 povs) with distinct voices, characters you kinda understand even though they're not normal, and you want to root for them. This story is about a mystery sexual predator, accusations, suspicion and ultimately, the truth. It felt very real to me. An excellent page-turner. I also recommend "The Family Upstairs" (imho, scarier) and "The Night She Disappeared" (more mystery, less thillery) by the same author.

[Frau Liersch · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This was a really good audio book. It kept me listening chapter after chapter with a nice pace. I loved it!

[Connor Smith · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Was hard to get into at first but got better after getting deeper into it.

[shea knowles · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Intriguing and dark, with little glimpses of light throughout. Great narration too!

[jay robinson · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I have read several of Lisa Jewell's novels and enjoyed all of them. The writing may be a bit slow for some but I love how she builds the characters and story and keeps you guessing. I read most of this novel and then listened to the last 1/4. This was one of my favorites of hers.

[Madeline Driscoll · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

It explores everything so many women go through; the constant suspicion of masculinity, loving through that, making mistakes about people, trying your best to keep safe and keep others safe. Perfection.

[Christopher Dicdiquin · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

It took a moment for me to get into the groove but I did like it eventually. The characters grew on me. A great easy listen.

[Perpel P. Pleater · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

It’s a really good book! It’s very disturbing in some parts due to some triggering events. Overall I really enjoyed it.

[Michelle Humber · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Not really sure about this one. Didn't grip mrfrom the start like the other Lisa jewel book I read (the night she disappeared). Then in the middle/towards the end I was getting really into it, thinking it was clever. But after the ending I'm not sure if it was clever or just convoluted. Did enjoy some of the character development (not to give anything away)
