Elizabeth Is Missing
Emma Healey • 2014
Devastation Rating
dementia mystery aging friendship
Our Take
Maud is eighty-two and losing her memory, and she believes her friend Elizabeth has disappeared — a belief everyone dismisses. Healey structures the novel around two disappearances decades apart, making the dementia a formal device that mirrors the plot's concealment. When the truth surfaces, you've been living in it for chapters.
