This book kept me on my toes throughout the entire story. I enjoyed the multiple narrator perspectives and structure of the story.

This story had very good character development with three main characters who cross paths through their trauma. You have Kira whose daughter is missing, Grace was a missing girl herself and Aden whose dad is missing. Each character uncovers dark truths about their loved ones and really makes you question each persons role in the disappearance.

Overall, I really enjoyed the mystery of this book.

Let me wipe my tears from my eyes and pick my jaw up off the floor to attempt to write a review for this amazing, heart pounding, twisty book.

I had no idea going into this book what to expect but I definitely wasn't expecting all of that. This book gripped me from the very beginning and I couldn't stop reading. I'm ashamed to say the only other book I've read by this author I rated very poorly but this book is one of the top thrillers I've ever read. And one of the few thrillers to ever make me cry.

It was full of so many twists that multiple times I thought I knew the bad person but every single time I was wrong. The relationships in this book pulled at my heart strings, not the romance type relationships, but the friendships. Random strangers thrown together to help find missing people and figure out who the bad guy was, ugh, I loved all of them.

I don't think I'm adequately giving this book the praise it truly deserves. Just know if you want a twisty, crazy thriller with multiple POVs that are all likable, please pick up this book. I will now be reading all of the author's other works and you'll probably be hearing me sing the praises of those as well.

I loved this book! It's well-written, enjoyable, and a great read. The author did a great job of writing in a way that captures the readers attention, and makes you not want to put it down until you're finished! I would highly recommend it!

A deep rooted layered exploration of a mother trying to find her daughter, a son searching for his father and a survived victim trying to hide from the outside world

"The word missing is always bold and red"

So you know those dramatized crime stories you can watch on Lifetime? Yes? Okay well this book felt exactly like one of those. Your given the cast of characters that are searching for answers, following every lead presented to them with intensity growing and growing. You just get so swept away by the emotions, possibilities, and the need for answers.And before you know it your sitting on the edge of your seat screaming about how you know who the villain is, when in reality you can't place direct blame towards any one individual because so many possible suspects are presented. Until that big reveal comes around and the obvious smacks you right in the face. LEAVING YOU BREATHLESS.

It's fast moving, thrilling, dramatic and all around a great time. NOT GONNA LIE you should really go read it.

A huge thank you to Seraphina Nova Glass, @graydonhousebooks @harlequinbooks and @netgalley for the advanced invitation to visit Rock Harbor and the chance to get my sleuth on. I had the best time and I cannot wait for what's about to go down in the vacant room 10.

I love this author and this books was not different. I would recommend this book to anyone. If you need a good thriller

I Love Seraphina Nova Glass. I picked up one of her books at Walmart with low expectations, but stayed up all night reading it. This one was just the same. I was fully into it, I was guessing "who dun it" until the end. I am still a fan of Seraphina til the end!

This cover is gorgeous. It sucked me right in. I love a good thriller, especially one with a very likeable character. Tons of plot twists, I could not guess the end. I hate when I figure out the end of a thriller. I loved it!

Thank you Netgalley. This was a great read! The multiple POV storyline was very well done and kept me wanting more. Highly recommend

The Vanishing Hour is about a young woman with a past she wants to forget who suddenly finds herself in the center of a string of disappearances that force her to rejoin a world she tried to hide from.

This is an easy 5-star review for me!

The Vanishing Hour takes place in the quiet little town of Rock Harbor, Maine. We follow Grace, a kidnapping survivor who is trying to live a calm life and escape the tragedy that still haunts her eight years later. When multiple other kidnappings occur in the small town, Grace is thrown back into chaos, along with her secrets. Additionally, we meet two other characters. Kira, who is searching for her daughter, and Adam, who is searching for his father.

Told through multiple POV’s, The Vanishing Hour takes the reader on a ride full of suspense and plot twists. Though it does take a while to join all the stories together, I was engaged and captivated the entire time. While I didn’t love the ending, I did not predict the culprit, and who doesn’t love a good whodunnit!

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC! This one was very hard to get into unfortunately. I had to DNF it because it didn't seem to go anywhere and the various POVs were very confusing unfortunately

I really liked this book, it was different than anything else I've read which was a breath of fresh air. I will be recommending this to my friends, and auto buy this author!

I love any novel by Seraphina Nova Glass (I enjoy just reading her name) and the Vanishing Hour is up there as one of the best five star reads this year. What makes this story outstanding are the realistically real characters - you can picture them in your mind fully formed. You care about them.. plus it’s a complex and rather complicated story and we learn just enough to keep us ready one more page. A satisfactory ending filled with promise.

Unputdownable from the first page! SNG always has the best plot twists and I thought nothing could beat On a Quiet Street, but this gives it a run for it's money. You will easily lose yourself in this thriller from the first paragraph. Once you pick up this book you won't stop until you are done - not even for a bathroom break! Bet!

What a Nail-Biting Suspense! At first I felt a little confused with the multiple POVs but I quickly I adjusted to it. I enjoyed all the individual stories and how they connected to one another perfectly. This story was full of shocking secrets and unexpected plot twists. The ending was satisfying and made sense to me.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC that was provided to me in exchange for an honest review.

This was an extremely fun thriller to read, with complicated family dynamics and it truly kept me guessing the whole time! Seraphina Nova Glass does a great job of keeping the twists coming.

Fast-paced and immersive, A recommended purchase for collections where crime and thrillers are popular.

This author is a favorite. The Vanishing Hour was a very entertaining read and one I would recommend. So many twists that I didn't see coming.

"Justice is like a train that is nearly always late"

This was my first book by Seraphina Nova Glass and I'm so happy I picked it up.

WHAT I LOVED:
- The book took place in a small, ocean side town in Maine, which I loved. The setting made the book seem more intense.
- I also really loved the alternating POV's. It was told from the POV of Kira (who was looking for her daughter), Aden (who was looking for his father) and Grace, who had been a victim before. It really added a unique view point into each person's thoughts.
- The twist at the end!! I never saw it coming, which is always the best!!


TRIGGERS:
- drugs
- prostitution
- serial killer
- murder

3.5ish stars

Another interesting thriller/mystery with a good amount of suspense, some truly wild details, a range of characters, and a series of twists at the end. It was mostly an enjoyable story, and I’ll always love the colours/designs of the cover. I’m glad I was able to go back and read this one.
