Gripping page-turner! Jun 18, 2008
Pick up this book for an intricately woven story that is one of those books where you say to yourself, "I'll just read five pages before bed," and you can't put it down.
The characters are fully fleshed out (how refreshing) and the UK setting makes the double story even more engaging--a *great* read!
Gripping Quick Summer Read...Great Novel!!!! May 12, 2008
This novel was a great read. I found myself wondering about and worrying for the main character. I couldn't wait to find out what happened as I read through it. A great quick summer read.

Who can you trust? Apr 24, 2008
I thoroughly enjoyed this short novel. I found myself intrigued by the mystery. And, just like the main character, I found myself trying to sort through the twists and turns, until I reached the final pages. The setting and characters were depicted very well. One immediately feels both at ease in the small English towns and then a bit uncomfortable as the main character tries to resolve "Where is She Now?.

A Fascinating Story Mar 27, 2008
Frances Gilbert has written a compelling and insightful story. Her extraordinary descriptions of the English setting invite you in; and, in fact, the setting plays an amazing role in the drama. You will love this short novel.

response is good Mar 23, 2008
I am the author of Where is She Now - I am getting some wonderful feedback - readers are enjoying the English settings - yes, they are authentic - I am English and lived there for many years - readers are intrigued by the insecure bond between Rosemary and her husband Brian, and especially by Rosemary's shifting understanding of what is real and what isn't - to me the one reflects the other the more difficult and ambiguous a relationship becomes the more uncertain one becomes in all interactions and the less secure about one's own judgements - so Rosemary struggles to assert herself and find out what happened to her baby, and employs her stronger self, Anna, when she feels overwhelmed - my favorite scenes - the restaurant by the river, where Rosemary first challenges Brian - and the very end, the gaveyard scene - I enjoyed writing that, it gave me closure - Frances Gilbert
