The plot was broken up into multiple POVs from past and present as you come toward the end of the novel you begin discovering that some of the voices overlap and lead to various exciting twists. The entire plot from every angle was compelling and I could hardly put it down as I just had to find out what would happen next. While I enjoyed reading The Girls in the Garden, I don't think it holds a candle to how intriguing, suspenseful, and complex of a story I Found You is. Lisa Jewell is a fairly new-to-me author I've only read one of her other books as they are just making their way into the US publication system. Two decades of secrets, a missing husband, and a man with no memory are at the heart of this brilliant new novel, filled with the “beautiful writing, believable characters, pacey narrative, and dark secrets” ( London Daily Mail) that make Lisa Jewell so beloved by audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Something about him makes Gray uncomfortable-and it’s not just that he’s playing the role of protective older brother. Their annual trip to the quaint seaside town is passing by uneventfully, until an enigmatic young man starts paying extra attention to Kirsty. Twenty-three years earlier, Gray and Kirsty are teenagers on a summer holiday with their parents. Then the police tell her that her husband never existed. When her new husband fails to come home from work one night she is left stranded in a new country where she knows no one. Meanwhile, in a suburb of London, twenty-one-year-old Lily Monrose has only been married for three weeks. Against her better judgment, she invites him inside.
He has no name, no jacket, and no idea how he got there. In a windswept British seaside town, single mom Alice Lake finds a man sitting on the beach outside her house. A young bride, a lonely single mother, and an amnesiac man of dubious origin lie at the heart of New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jewell’s next suspenseful drama that will appeal to fans of Liane Moriarty and Paula Hawkins.
