Fielding at Her Best!

Engaging, fast paced thriller told from the personal perspective of a female therapist and her tragic experiences with a serial rapist and murderer. Her wild and reckless younger sister opens the door to a dangerous man and this in turn puts everyone in danger. Joy Fielding is at her best in this witty,wise and truly unique story. You won't be disappointed!

joy fielding is the best author ever.

I just discovered her a few weeks ago at a local book store just happened across her books. I bought "don't cry now" and "see jane run" and I couldn't put them down "missing pieces" is equally as good as all her other books I have now read I just have to know whats gonna happen even if I lose sleep in the process. She sure can write great suspense novels.

excellent read

I really enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down. Held my attention to the very end. Sure, the lead character is a therapist, but she is also human. What happened to her family could happen to anyone's family. Her sister is a real loose cannon that was just looking for trouble from day one. The climatic ending didn't dissapoint. I feel you won't be dissapointed either. If you have read Joy Fielding before, you will love this book.

Joy Fielding is the best author at her genre!

When I was looking for some good books of suspense on my usual bookshop, I never imagined I was going to buy the best suspense book I've ever read. This is because Joy Fielding was new to me (and soon I discovered she's MUCH BETTER than another famous author that writes in her same genre, Mary Higgins Clark), and MISSING PIECES was going to be my first try on her books. I bought the book, but soon discovered that she was published in Portuguese here in Brazil and tried first the ones in my language. When I finished the one in Portuguese, I started MISSING PIECES, and oh my Godness... it's completely wonderful. It's a book full of twists and it's also funny and becomes more and more interesting as the story develops. When I finished the book I was sad because it was over and I wanted it to never end. That's the feeling that you have when finish Joy's books. MISSING PIECES is no exception.I'd also recommend: LIFE PENALTY, DON'T CRY NOW and other books by Joy.

Fast-paced contemporary fun-reading, a real pleasure

This book is a nice break from more serious heavy reading. Any woman over 30 who has ever had a child, husband, mother or sister must read this. Humerous yet with a fast paced plot. I read it in a 24 hour period. The characters are fun and believable and lovable. This was my first Joy Fielding book and I will certainly seek out others.

I really enjoyed this book !

I've never read any of Joy Fielding's novels before, so this was a surprise for me. Ms. Fielding writes like a real person, her characters worm their way into your heart by the end of the first chapter. The plot was interesting enough to keep me wanting to turn the pages, and exciting enough to have me thinking about it when I wasn't reading it. I enjoyed her descriptions of life with teenagers in the house,and I even fell in love with her eccentric, almost-crazy sister. Who can NOT relate to how she feels when she almost has an affair? I just felt the author was down to earth, making the novel an easy read and a real bestseller in my book!
