While parked at a gas station, Rhonda sees something so incongruously surreal that at first she hardly recognizes it as a crime in progress. She watches, unmoving, as someone dressed in a rabbit costume kidnaps a young girl. Devastated over having done nothing, Rhonda joins the investigation. But the closer she comes to identifying the abductor, the nearer she gets to the troubling truth about another missing child: her best friend, Lizzy, who vanished years before. From the author of the acclaimed Promise not to tell comes a chilling and mesmerizing tale of shattered innocence, guilt, and ultimate redemption.… (mer)

One of my favorite authors, also a good plot twist in the story and flows very well ( )

Got this book from a friend to read the other day. It is a good fast read. I definitely didn't see the end coming. There were characters that I didn't know what I thought of them, even at the end, but isn't that the way it is in real life? We never truly know someone. I would recommend this book to others and will probably read more by this author. ( )

This book was...ok. I had read a lot of good reviews and was kind of excited, thinking it might be along the lines of The Child Finder by Rene Denfeld (which I loved). I was disappointed. For starters, it felt like it jumped right in, but in actuality the overall story is painfully slow. The writing was ok, the story was interesting but predictable, and I had the ending figured out about 2/3 of the way through. The language was a little too explicit for my taste as well. And good grief, the love triangles were hard to keep straight! In the end I wasn’t enamored. I was honestly glad to be done with it and will be passing it on via Goodwill. I don’t recommend this book unless you were fascinated with Donnie Darko (I hated that movie) and just really love fast, easy mysteries. ( )

Rhonda Farr was at a gas station when she sees someone in a rabbit suit get out of a car and go over to a car with a young girl, take her by the hand and lead her to his car and take off. Rhonda can’t believe what she has just seen. Thinking back, Rhonda remembers a similar rabbit costume from long ago. Her best friend, Lizzie’s father dressed up as the Easter bunny. Lizzie’s father, Daniel disappeared almost three years after that and Lizzie disappeared several years later. The last time Rhonda heard from Lizzie was a number of years ago, when she was in high school. Lizzie sent a postcard claiming to be with Daniel. Rhonda feeling guilty, turns “detective” to find out who took the little girl from the car. ( )

This book starts out with the scary scene of a child being kidnapped in plain sight by a six-foot tall rabbit - just what you'd expect from the title, right? However, as the story unfolds, we learn this is more a tale of child molestation, murder, and insanity. Filled with quirky characters with questionable motives, the story is told through flashbacks by Rhonda, one of the witnesses, who ties the kidnapping into events from her childhood. Although I thought this book was a little dark, I still found it entertaining with realistic plot twists. ( )

"Dive, dive, dive!" shouted Suzy as she clutched the old Chevy's cracked red-and-white steering wheel, jerking it back and forth in her hands, yanking hard on the turn signal lever to bring the ship down. (Prologue, June 24, 2006)
Rhonda Farr had two Peters in her life: the Peter she loved but could not have, and now the white rabbit, which she, not unlike Alice in Wonderland, seemed destined to chase down the hole. (June 5, 2006 [Chapter 1])
