Book Of The Month for October – The Girls Who Disappeared by Claire Douglas

 

Looking for an atmospheric, creepy read to get you in the mood for Halloween? The Girls who Disappeared is a creepy and intriguing mystery that will certainly do the trick and give you goosebumps on your goosebumps! On a dark and rainy night Olivia Rutherford is driving three friends home when a mysterious figure in the road causes her to swerve and crash. When she regains consciousness, her friends have vanished, never to be seen again.

Twenty years later Jenna Halliday, a journalist stays in the close-knit community in Stafferbury to conduct research for a podcast she’s making which she hopes will shine a new light on the years old mystery. Why are the people of Stafferbury so frightened? Will Olivia speak to her? How many secrets can one small town hide? A moody, menacing and confounding thriller of a book which I couldn’t read at night because it was so masterfully chilling!

I was terrified of going through the menopause and whilst I glided through relatively unscathed, I didn't entirely escape its attempts to knock me down I firmly believe there is a positive side the menopause and to being an older woman in the 21st century. In my fifties I trained as a fitness instructor, which I did as a side hustle to my regular job of a college librarian. I also took up belly dancing and danced on stage in a city theatre and created my own fitness classes with hula hoops. Last year at the age of 61 I ditched the library job and now buy and sell vintage jewellery, run fitness classes and work part time from home in a customer services role. It ain't over till its over.
