After Dinner: A Disappearance Mystery

By Rebecca Gale

Rose Lennex is a mother of three teenagers. She goes to dinner with friends on a normal weeknight, leaves the restaurant, and never makes it home.

At first, everyone assumes there must be a simple explanation. Maybe she stopped somewhere. Maybe she needed space. Maybe she left on purpose. But Rose is not the kind of woman who disappears, and the longer she's gone, the more unsettling the question becomes.

Detectives Mara Ellison and her partner take the case and begin pulling apart Rose's last known hours. They interview the friends who saw her that night, the neighbors who noticed strange details, and the family slowly unraveling as they wait for answers. Secrets surface. Lies come into focus. Timelines stop making sense. Soon it feels like anyone could be responsible.

As the town turns the disappearance into a public obsession, the detectives realize the case isn't just about where Rose went. It's about who is telling the truth, who is protecting themselves, and what everyone missed during an ordinary night that didn't end the way it was supposed to.

AFTER DINNER is a twist-filled disappearance mystery about a woman who vanishes without a trace-and the investigators who refuse to stop until they learn what really happened.
