Publisher's Summary

It begins with a phone call. It ends with a missing child.

On a warm summer's morning, 13-year-old schoolgirl Constance Lawson is reported missing.

A few days later, Constance's uncle, Karl Lawson, suddenly finds himself swept up in a media frenzy created by journalist Amanda Bowe implying that he is the prime suspect.

Six years later...

Karl's life is in ruins. His marriage is over, his family destroyed. But the woman who took everything away from him is thriving. With a successful career, a husband, and a gorgeous baby boy, Amanda's world is complete. Until the day she receives a phone call, and in a heartbeat she is plunged into every mother's worst nightmare.

An utterly compelling psychological thriller that will keep you guessing to the very last minute. Perfect for fans of Louise Jensen, Claire Douglas, and Sarah Denzil's Silent Child.

Could not engage with the story

The book started off really well and I felt the charaters were developing and I was getting to know them. Then the story pivoted in a direction that made me lose traction with the storyline. The writing style is interesting and not one that has appealed to me. I always finish books, but Im sad to say that this was one I could not go through and skimmed most of the chapters , especially after the first part of the story concludes.

Good storyline

Loved it. A little predictable in some parts, but it wasn't enough to take away from the story. Took awhile to get used to the narrator.

Guilty!

Great narration, loved the Irish accent. Good storyline- I felt it got a bit lost in the middle. Bit disappointing at the end.

Riviting but....

A really great story that I had to listen to without stopping. But I had to put the speed at 1.25 as at normal speed the reading was too slow and drawn out. Besides that brilliant now to find another by Laura O’Callaghan.
