"What She Knew" by Gilly MacMillan is Very Good!

In What She Knew by Gilly MacMillan, Rachel is going through the park with her 8-yr.-old son, Ben. When Ben asks if he can go on ahead, Rachel says “yes.” But then Ben vanishes, and Rachel is at a loss to know what happened. This story is told by multiple points of view which adds to the drama of finding Ben. Who did it? Who has him? What will the outcome be? I really enjoyed this book! The characters are well developed and the ending is good too!
(Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

I read about the first 75 pages and it was just moving too slow for me.  Didn't care for the writing and was zero action.  Didn't have much background on the little boy who was missing to make me feel attached to him in any way.  Had other books I wanted to read more so skipped the middle and read the ending.  It's over 400 pages and just felt like it plodded along!
