A newlywed with a secret pregnancy goes missing after a business trip. Her husband isn’t very concerned.

But back home in Big Bear Lake, her thirteen-year-old sister is still missing and now her friend has disappeared as well under very similar circumstances. The FBI is called in and the agent assigned to the case is none other than Luke Galvinson. But the last thing Kaitlyn needs is a man from her past.

No one is who they are.
Everyone has a secret.

Can Kaitlyn uncover the truth in time to prevent another death?

What do you mean?

This series had promise based on the storyline, but the writing style will drive you insane. What do you mean? Every other line. I hung with it as long as I could. The cliffhanger endings are annoying. Still don't know what happened to Violet, but can't pay to find out. Uncle....

[Saralouise Briggs · Rating 1 out of 5]

The first book had so much potential that I dove into the second immediately, even paying £3.49 for it!

The inaccuracy in timelines and detail from first book was incredibly frustrating, it felt like an unedited book written by a young person.

Kaitlin met Luke the night her sister violet disappeared which was two days ago at the start of book 2 (she confirms this in the book). In the first book they would have seen each other that morning (that book 2 starts at), yet she states she hasn’t spoken to Luke in two days and he is ‘ghosting’ her.

Her ex Mark - story states not seen in 12 years and spoken in 8 but as the story goes on we find out they saw each other before her short trip to Hawaii and spoke on her return days later when they broke up and that was the last time they spoke.

Fathers death - in first book she says her mother has remodelled the bedroom where her father was killed 3 times. In second book it says nothing has changed, same furniture, curtains everything.

The author also uses descriptive words that don’t fit time lines - example; its the morning of her sister’s second search party and she is at work. The next paragraph says ‘when I get to big bear the following morning…’ That would usually mean the next day not a few hours later

Author’s use of “” when its thoughts in Kaitlin’s head making it difficult to know if she is talking to another character or not.

I have the third book as it was free so I hope it improves as I want to find out what happened to Violet but something tells me she will make us wait.

Detective Kaitlyn Carr is splitting her time between her home town and her job. Her thirteen year old sister Violet is still missing and she is on the case of a missing pregnant woman. There are no new leads on Violet dissapearance but then her friend dissapears is similar circumstances. Meanwhile to case of the missing pregnant woman starts to become more complicated.

[Siti · Rating 2 out of 5]

Hmmm. It felt like reading a school essay. There were a lot of narratives that felt unnecessary. Needs more punch for the climactic scenes.

I finish it because I rarely leave a book unfinished, but overall it’s not for me. Perhaps the subsequent series will be better.

Hope this review somewhat helps and my apology if it doesn’t. Keep it up, writer, you got this!

Detective Kaitlyn is working a case while still trying to find her missing sister but things just keep messier and messier and Kaitlyn is noticing that not everything is like it seems

[Ev · Rating 1 out of 5]

The writing style is awful. Had to stop after a few chapters.

[rita's book journal · Rating 2 out of 5]

I almost, almost, left this book unfinished, but I pushed through and am here now to talk about it. Firstly, let me start by saying that I didn’t read the previous book to this one so I’m not sure if my thoughts on this would be different but … I don’t think so.

Girl Lost is a book following the life of Detective Kaitlyn Carr, an LAPD agent who is assigned the case of a disappearing woman - Karen. Meanwhile, back home at Big Bear Lake, her thirteen-year-old sister, Violet, is missing. That’s the story, you don’t really get more than that.

I was very excited going into this story, it sounded like the perfect mix of the real-life of an agent vs. their working career. However, it ended up being too unrealistic and the writing was borderline average. Most descriptive scenes dragged on and on about details that you don’t really need to know to get the vibe the author is trying to pass onto you. I get that maybe her idea was to make you feel exactly what Kaitlyn was feeling and maybe in the author’s mind, it made sense to describe certain environments excessively to create a certain idea or image in our minds, but this story could have been told in half the number of pages it was.

All the scenes that promise to be climatic end up being monotonous and underdeveloped. Also, the ending wasn’t too surprising. Some of it, yes, but the person who committed the crime seemed quite obvious to me halfway through the book.

The premise of this book made me feel like I was going down a hill with a few bumps along the way.

One last thing and, please, bear in mind you might consider this a spoiler:

For someone who loves her sister so much and tries to be more invested in finding her than working on her real case, it seems kind of strange to me how she’s so worried about whether she should pursue a relationship with one man or another. She’s going out eating dinner, talking about life (I would consider them dates) with men instead of doing her job, and focusing on both her sister and Karen. It takes the truthfulness of her feelings towards her sister and even her job seem quite fake and it makes her look unsympathetic towards both cases.

Happy reads, besties.

2 ½ *stars REALLY
I KNEW GOING IN THAT THIS WAS CLIFFHANGER (which I hate) IT WAS FREE SO I GAVE IT A TRY. IT CENTERS ON TWO CASES HER MISSING SISTER AND A MISSING WIFE, LACEY PETERSON TYPE CASE. I HAD A OMG MOMENT AT THE DINNER HER MOM SERVED, MADE MY ARTERIES CONSTRICT JUST READING ABOUT IT, CARBS, FATS, SUGAR AND A SHOT OF PROTEIN. YUCK! I DON’T KNOW IF I’LL KEEP READING THIS SERIES OR NOT. ;<

[Jean Jiskra · Rating 3 out of 5]

Didn't like this one as much as the first one. I'm getting a little perturbed with Kaitlyn.....her 13 yr old sister is missing but she's going out on dates and almost forgetting about it!! I'm invested now though and will read #3.

[Margaret Crampton · Rating 4 out of 5]

This series is light hearted but sufficiently mysterious to keep one’s attention. In fact it is a bit addictive. Cant believe I’ve read all 6!

[Kristi Holden · Rating 3 out of 5]

Unrealistic

It doesn't seem realistic that with your little sister recently missing that you carry on with your life like normal. Eating dinner out having sex and doing your job.it would take a pretty heartless unfeeling person to do all that.

[Sandy S · Rating 4 out of 5]

GIRL LOST is the second full-length instalment in Kate Gable’s contemporary, adult DETECTIVE KAITLYN CARR murder/mystery/suspense series focusing on LAPD Detective Kaitlyn Carr.

NOTE: There is a prequel novella GIRL HIDDEN that introduces some of the background, characters and players in the series.

Told from first person perspective (Kaitlyn) GIRL LOST continues to focus on the search for Detective Kaitlyn Carr’s missing thirteen year old sister, as well as a new case regarding a missing pregnant woman, and her husband, who has bee less than forthcoming with personal information.

Kaitlyn Carr’s thirteen year old sister has been missing for several days, last seen when she was dropped off at home by the mother of a friend. From there, Kaitlyn’s sister’s whereabouts are unknown. Big Bear Lake is out of Kaitlyn’s jurisdiction but when a second thirteen year old girl goes missing, the FBI is called in to investigate bringing Kaitlyn’s current friends with benefits, FBI agent Luke Galvinson, back into her life.

Meanwhile, Kaitlyn has been called in to investigate a missing woman, a pregnant and married female whose husband is less than cooperative with the LAPD. Suspecting the husband but not leaving any stone unturned, Kaitlyn begins to interviews neighbors and friends, sending our heroine on a twisted path of secrets and lies. NOTE: I pegged the personal responsible from the start but the path towards reveal is tangled and messy.

GIRL LOST is an intriguing, suspense filled story about one woman’s struggle to blend, family, friendships, relationships and work into a less than cohesive ball of strife. We are witness to the Kaitlyn’s less than ideal extended family dynamics, and her struggle to have a personal life, on the side. GIRL LOST ends on cliff hanger-you have been warned.

[Word Queen · Rating 1 out of 5]

I started this book as an audiobook, but I couldn’t listen to it. I made it about half an hour in and I had to turn it off the narration was that terrible.
Madison Gilpin might be the worst narrator I’ve ever listened to. Narration was very monotone and felt like someone learning to read or who doesn’t know proper sentense/punctuation structure.
When a character says “I asked.” (with a period) she reads it as “I ASKED?” With her enunciating, literally yelling the word asked and posing it as a question. It was so distracting and frustrating I gave up on the audio. Probably well over 95% of the time none of her punctuation matched what was on the written page. She randomly pauses every few words mid sentence, over emphasizes words or phrases, and yells words. It was also very distracting how heavy her lisp was. I applaud narrators and lisps aren’t something that bother me, but in this case, it was extremely hard to understand her and her flat, monotone, robotic reading did not help alleviate the distraction. It felt more like someone pretending to have an overly complex lisp. More than the lisp though, the incorrect inflection, words pronounced wrong, monotone, random pauses and yelling of words were just too much. Author needs to consider a new narrator. As many other reviewers have stated on numerous forums, I had to check if this was an AI narrator. Words like whatever pronounced like a map app what-ever, turnaround as turn-around, and phrases like I don’t know as I. Don’t. Know. or what are you doing as what. Are. You. Doing. It really sounded like a map app was reading this book.
I even increased the reading speed to make it sound a little more “normal,” but it didn’t help.
I don’t knowing there is another version of this book with a different narrator, but if there is, skip this one and try it.

Trying to read the book vs listening to the audio sadly didn’t improve things. The writing style is horrendous and quite embarrassing it was published as is. This needs a serious editor. The book was full of run on sentences, misspelled words, improper grammar and punctuation, quotations for internal thoughts yet none for conversations, and overly fluffy, descriptive language that not only doesn’t fit, it doesn’t further the story at all. This felt like slogging through an unedited high school essay. A simple spelling and grammar check on a word doc would have produced a higher quality product.

Besides the horrible narration and writing/editing, this story seems to be full of contradictions and timeline errors that do not make sense. One minute there’s changes to a room, next there aren’t any. Her sister’s been missing two days, but she’s taken just sooo much time off work and can’t take anymore. She hasn’t seen an ex in 12 years/spoken to in 8, yet they spoke before her recent vacation. There’s also a lot of repetition.

Poor character development, plot development, juvenile, disjointed feeling dialogue with a female MC who is not only extremely unlikable, selfish, and has no emotion towards anything let alone her missing sister, she is also painfully immature for a homicide detective with no sense of training, empathy, or awareness of things around her. She is more concerned with why her recent hook up is ghosting her (again, it’s been two days and it didn’t seem she had reached out to him either), than finding her missing sister. She also withholds important information about her missing sister, because that’s makes sense. I couldn’t connect with her at all. I don’t see how this person would’ve made a homicide detective in any reality.
No one seems concerned about the missing girl either.
Examples:
Detective sister argues with a friend on blow drying her hair while discussing boys, sex lives, or goes for a run instead of hurry home to look for her sister. She takes a friend home to visit and when they get there they sit and eat junk food then the friend and the mom look at the FMC yearbooks rather than discuss or plan anything regarding the search for the sister. When FMC brings up looking at the missing sister’s yearbooks instead, the mom and friend make jokes about seeing the FMC’s acne in high school and how they basically don’t need to look at anything of the missing sisters. The mother seems overbearing, but not at all worked up or concerned her 13 yr old daughter is missing. She actually seems indifferent and uncaring.

This dialogue between characters felt juvenile, very unrealistic for adult professionals, disjointed, and again, high school essay ish. These were not well thought of or thought provoking conversations and mostly did not further the plot at all. Most of the book was overly fluffed up word salad as if a word count contract had to be met and followed the FMC’s thoughts (her sex life, being ghosted, how she is the only one to wear AirPods when alone running, etc). Very litttle was even discussed about the missing sister. This is beyond boring and I’m not sure how this is classified as a thriller other than it has a detective and a missing girl so therefore it must be thrilling…

There is also no suspense, annxiety, or edgy thrills here. No emotions I would expect to see for a missing child/sibling.
The book is quite boring, doesn’t resolve anything, and too hard to follow with the contradictions and poor writing.

Skip this one. There are better, actually mystery/thrillers out there and far better narrators. This is a series and author I won’t be reading again. I definitely will not listen to another audiobook by this narrator.

Detective Kaitilyn Carr gets assigned to a missing wife case. The husband has a girl friend that Kate interviews. Kate's sister is still missing and she travels home when she can. The FBI is working that case. Kate does not get anywhere with the husband and continues on. The ending was a surprise to me. The story line keep me reading to find out the conclusion.

[Ricki · Rating 2 out of 5]

It was obvious from the beginning who it was -or was it? A twist which was good while the rest of the book continues Kaityln's commute home to search for the sister she thought she knew.

Another book without a resolution to the disappearance

[Dora Harvey · Rating 4 out of 5]

The plot thickens… in the continuation of Book 2 for Detective Kaitlyn Carr’s mystery. I am trying to wrap my mind around what happened in this book. I didn’t see that coming, but it was an unexpected surprise that is so jaw-dropping good! This entire book had me captivated from the first page and no amount of guessing could have prepared me for what went down. As more information is divulged as the investigation continues in the disappearance of Kaitlyn’s sister Violet, another 13 year old girl from Violet’s school disappears in Big Bear Lake, which is out of Kaitlyn’s jurisdiction, and now the FBI or rather Luke Galvinson (someone Kaitlyn is familiar with) is brought in to help with the investigation. Kaitlyn is torn between helping to investigate her sister’s disappearance, but when a married pregnant woman disappears after returning from a business trip and her husband is less than forthcoming with information, Kaitlyn has to solve this mystery in LA in order to keep her job as a Detective. Kaitlyn tries to figure out the motive of why the woman has disappeared. Is it jealousy, cheating, divorce, or secrets. The motive varies depending on which suspect she is focusing on. This suspenseful thriller is an emotional rollercoaster as we ride every high and hit the withdrawal symptoms that the characters endures. There are several twists and turns within the story that will tempt the characters in ways they could not have never envisioned.

The one thing I didn’t like about Kaitlyn was her saying “I don’t know” all the time—it started to grade on my nerves while reading this phrase a lot. This is the reason for 4 stars. I understand that this is part of her personality and with the way she grew up, and by saying this she doesn’t want to make the wrong choices to feel vulnerable and it is hard to be confident when your being told you’re wrong.

Kate Gable’s books are riveting, and her stories keep you glued to the story with always a surprising ending. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

[Rory Emmons · Rating 2 out of 5]

The Pros: Well defined characters that are good and flawed. Interesting and you see them grow. Also no single character is the center that everything must flow. The main character makes mistakes and is wrong just as much as she is right. She is a person who exists in her world among others. She has complicated relationships with others where both sides make it complicated. The characters and their dialogue are still good.

The Cons: The plot. While the over arching plot of the sister is missing is intriguing and the details unfolding do suck you in. They are always diverted by another case. It was similar in the last novel to where now I already see the formula. Detective sister is missing. She goes to hometown to find details. Finds some details and goes back home to solve unrelated case back home. She doesn’t see the true perpetrator in home case but solves it. Meanwhile new detail comes up as a cliff hanger in sisters case forcing her to go back. Listen. I love a slow burn. But this isn’t that. This is just stretching what should have been one book into three or more. Honestly I’m going to read the next one to see where it’s going out of curiosity. But no longer recommending this.

What it reminds me of is a 80’s detective show where the over arching plot is the sister. But every book is a single episode. These are very fast reads. Even the font is double spaced. I think to stretch things out. Every book you get a bit of an adventure and a few more details on the sister. But honestly the main story seems usually slapped together. And the sisters story is interesting, but you never get enough of it. Maybe I’ll take it all back when I read the book revealing the sisters mystery. But as of now this feels like this was just a story stretched out and a ton of filler injected. Great characters and dialogue though.

Detective Kaitlyn Carr has caught a new case: the disappearance of a pregnant wife who returned from a business trip only to vanish into thin air. Her best friend is frantic, but her husband is apathetic. Where did the young woman go and why does her spouse not seem to care? Meanwhile, the search for Kaitlyn's sister has yielded no results and the detective's new love is now part of the investigation team.

It makes sense that even though her loved one is missing, Kaitlyn continues to work and split her time between her paid employment and the search for her sister - a girl's gotta eat, after all. But Kaitlyn comes off as detached, emotionally uninvolved and it feels as though her sister's disappearance is just one more puzzle for her to solve. Even when she's fighting with the men in her life, she's so utterly impassive. It's book two and I still haven't warmed to her. In fact, my relationship with Kaitlyn has actually diminished since the ending of the first novel.

Time to step away. I'll come back to this series again because I do want to know how it all plays out. The cliffhanger at the end of this book aroused my curiosity enough that I will cave and read on. Eventually.

[Jean · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is book two in A Detective Kaithlyn Carr Mystery Series and it is definitely a must read. This book has Kaithlyn's sister Violet still missing and now Violet's friend has also gone missing in the same way and now a pregnant woman has disappeared but her husband doesn't seem that concerned so what is going on and how is Kaithlyn supposed to divide her time between finding her sister and dealing with the case of the missing pregnant woman when all she wants to do is fine her sister and hopefully time will not run out and she will find Violet in time. More evidence is coming forward but it is not making much sense but where will it all end and surely someone must know but will they come forward. Omg this series is just getting better and better with each book and I couldn't turn the pages fast enough as I wanted to see what would come to light next and I couldn't put it down. Kate Gable is an amazing author and writer and I definitely recommend you read this book and series and you will definitely not be disappointed and I can't wait to read the next book as they are so addictive and keep you on the edge of your seat.

I Voluntarily Reviewed an Arc Copy of this book.

[Carla · Rating 3 out of 5]

Although there is a prequel novella titled Girl Hidden in this Kaitlyn Carr “Girl” series it is not mandatory to read it before tackling the rest of the series. With the other five books in the series it is necessary (or at least much more enjoyable and less confusing) to read them in order as the five novels have a key single story line that runs through all five books as well as one other story line that is featured (and concludes) in each of the novels. These five books are really one large (over 1300 pages) novel divided into five separate volumes sold individually. That said the “Girl” series with Girl Missing, Girl Lost, Girl Found, Girl Taken and Girl Forgotten have an interesting, realistic female protagonist and page turning plots. There is some extraneous content in the novels that could have been removed in editing to make the novels into even tighter page turners.

[Petra Beck · Rating 2 out of 5]

Second book and possibly a fraction better than the first as it doesn't have as many unneccesary fillers, and the main story has some nice twists. Also fewer inconsistencies, but still some (e.g.: the bloke she is interviewing is wearing a "slouchy hat" but then she describes his haircut). Again it would have benefitted from decent editing/proofreading. Style is awkward in places, quotation marks are sometimes in the wrong place and some sentences simply don't make sense, as if there's a bit missing. Example:
"How old is your child?"
"Nine months. It was great. We're working on buying a house"
Eh???
And I just cannot relate to the American obsession with hair and make-up. Not to mention oversexed 13-year olds.
Unfortunately this book ends up with yet another cliffhanger in her personal case, and I have NO intention of buying book No 3. Just glad I made it through this one.

[Maria Vargas · Rating 1 out of 5]

OMG, Kaitlyn can't you try to do better, Jesus!

The sister is still missing, and Kaitlyn works another case making me cringe the entire time on how she does anything related to her job. It was really hard to try and keep up with the timeline because I felt that it was all over the place and didn't know if she was talking about her sister's disappearance, the case she was working or something from her personal life.

Kaitlyn has had bad experiences with relationships; her latest breakup was with another detective from the same office. There's the random guy she met at a bar? I think and turns out to be an FBI agent and then she also connects with her ex of more than 10 years, and she might still feel something?

Everything is confusing, things don't add up and this is one of the worst series I've read of detective work or psychological mysteries. Don't even think about trying the audiobook, it's the worst narrator ever. Total waste of money.

The second book in the Kaitlyn Carr series opens with Violet, LAPD Detective Kaitlyn Carr's sister, still missing. Kaitlyn also has a new case on her own turf, a missing pregnant wife with a strange, not very likeable husband.

Kaitlyn is still traveling back and forth between her hometown and LAPD in order to try to find her sister and still work her own case. There is now a complication in her hometown, Natalie, Violet's friend, has gone missing in the exact same scenario.

I liked this book even more than the first one. The characters are well thought out and the story draws you in. I found this book incredibly hard to put down. I am SO looking forward to the third and final book in the series.

[Karen Wood · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book from the start to the end, I love Kaitlyn and Luke, she is a brilliant detective and the way she works and asks questions you feel like you are there in the scene

When Karen goes missing, her friend Elin calls the police, not her husband, which makes Kaitlyn suspicious from the start that he has something to do with his wife's disappearance. As the story unfolds you uncover his secrets and lies but still don't know what has happened to Karen.

Meanwhile, back home, the FBI has been called in to help with Violet and Natalie's missing persons reports, and Luke is assigned to the case, they organise a search but come up empty handed.

This is a brilliant series has you on the edge of your seat wanting more, making your own mind up what has happened.

[Pedro Bedro · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kaitlyn has a case to solve, did this woman Karen disappear of her own volition or was she taken? But she can't dedicate herself to it as she also needs to find her 13 year old sister Violet who is also missing. Old flame and new are also brought into the story just to complicate things and the missing woman case practically solves itself when her body is found. Her death is due to the husband not being able to keep it in his pants and his wife was pregnant and his current affair and his ex have kids by him so plenty going on there he's a one man baby boom. Violet is still missing and Kaitlyn's FBI admirer is on the case of her sister which is left hanging at the end. Plenty going on and good read.

[LJ · Rating 1 out of 5]

Giving up for 2 reasons. This will sound harsh; however, I have only given up once in the past due to my first reason. That time was a best-selling authors book which suffered the same problem.

1- This book definitely needed editorial attention i.e., run-on sentences, poorly flowing timeframe within paragraphs/sections, and at Chapter 7 a new viewpoint “speaking to the reader.”
2- My second reason for committing the reader’s sin (quitting a book), is lack of closure one of the main storylines. From looking into the series, I discover that storyline is covered over multiple books. Despite what might be a decent story premise, the lack of editorial attention will preclude me from additional books in the series.

[Sammye · Rating 5 out of 5]

In the second book in the Kaitlyn Carr series, she is juggling her personal life with her professional life. Back home, her 13 year old sister is still missing and in LA she’s working on the case of a missing wife. She’s also seeing two different men. She’s dating an FBI agent and her ex-boyfriend from college shows up. She’s a very busy lady! I was totally surprised by the ending of this storyline. This is a very intriguing mystery romance series and I’m really enjoying it. I’m curious to see which man she chooses and to find out the fate of her sister. The next addition should be very entertaining. *this honest review is based on a complimentary copy from the author*

[Jenna Accurso · Rating 2 out of 5]

I picked this book up on a whim at my local library, not realizing it was the second in a series, but I decided to read it anyway. At first, I wasn’t impressed by the writing style, but I did appreciate how easy it was to read, especially since I’ve been buried in textbooks for school lately 😂.

I actually found the subplot about the missing sister more engaging than the main case, which felt rushed and less compelling. It also felt off that Kaitlyn(MC) spent so much time worrying about her love life instead of focusing on her missing sister and her struggling mother.

Overall, it was a quick read, but I’m unsure if I’ll continue the series since I don’t feel connected to Kaitlyn.

[June · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brilliant read.

This is my unbiased review of a Arc copy I received.
This is the second book in the series of Detective Kaithlyn Carr, but it's a stand alone book in its own right. Kaithlyn's sister Violet is still missing and now she finds herself investigating the disappearance of a pregnant woman. I soon got into this book which is quite a page turner. I then found that I just couldn't put it down until it was finished. This book is as good as book one and I'm certainly looking forward to reading book three. It's certainly a book you have got to read.

[Diane · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kaitlyn Carr is still splitting herself in two between her job at the LAPD and going home to big bear lake to try to find her missing sister Violet. Another young girl has also gone missing now so her ex partner agent Luke Galvinson has come back into her life as the FBI take on the case. With mixed emotions and a missing pregnant woman to deal with Kaitlyn has a busy life at the moment. Like book one this book moves fast keeping you turning those pages and I’m now waiting for book three to see what happens next.
