Book #5: Last Night in Montreal

by Emily St. John Mandel

Eli's lover, Lillia, leaves him with no warning.  Abducted at age seven by her father,on the run for years, she is dominated by the urge to always move on.  The intertwining of the lives of Eli, Lillia, Christopher, (the detective obsessed with the disappearance), and his daughter Michaela, is a fascinating exploration of what "skating over the surface of life" leaves in its wake.

I love the way Emily St. John Mandel writes!
