‘Gone Before Goodbye’ Falls Flat

Review of Gone Before Goodbye

Reese Witherspoon, a world-renowned actress, has been leading Reese's Book Club since 2017, promoting female authors and their works, including Emily Henry's Great Big Beautiful Life, R. Kuang's Yellowface, and Celeste Ng's Our Missing Hearts.

Witherspoon recently released her own thriller novel, Gone Before Goodbye, in collaboration with Harlan Coben. The story follows Maggie McCabe, a former Army surgeon who lost her medical license and has fallen into disgrace.

Maggie takes a lucrative yet secretive overseas job offered by a former mentor to help her sister out of debt. The novel's plot is expected to be thrilling, given Witherspoon's involvement and Coben's expertise in the genre.
