I recently read this book and loved it! @charliedonlea is one of my must read authors since his books are full of suspense and well written. Long Time Gone follows Sloan who has just started an elite fellowship and has been assigned a research project in forensic genealogy. This project will forever change her life!

I loved that this novel is partially set in North Carolina, the twists included in the story, and how Sloan navigates the surprises. 

I highly recommend reading this book and spending some gift card book money on buying this book!
