After I'm Gone/Laura Lippman/334 pgs.

On July 4, 1976, Felix Brewer disappeared, leaving behind his wife, Bambi, his three daughters, Linda, Rachel, and Michelle, and his mistress, Julie Saxony. When Julie disappears almost 10 years to the day of Felix's disappearance, it's thought that she was going to be with him--until her remains are discovered.  Twenty-six years after Julie's death, retired Baltimore detective Sandy Sanchez decides to look into her murder. There are family secrets and surprises--all adding up to an engrossing read. It was much better than I anticipated--highly recommended!
