Publisher's summary

The real nightmare starts when her daughter is returned....

A bone-chilling psychological thriller that will suit fans of Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, Daughter by Jane Shemilt, and The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins.

A girl is missing. Five years old, taken from outside her school. She has vanished, traceless. The police are at a loss; her parents are beyond grief. Their daughter is lost forever, perhaps dead, perhaps enslaved. But the biggest mystery is yet to come: one week after she was abducted, their daughter is returned. She has no memory of where she has been. And this, for her mother, is just the beginning of the nightmare.

Great except for shouting

I loved this story but there were several parts the narrator shouted to tell the listeners about how the characters were calling out for help or otherwise. It was unnecessary and really annoying

Loved this

I absolutely loved this book. I had an idea towards the middle of the book as to who did what. But, wasn't completely sure. I ended up being correct in what I thought. But, wasn't 100% until the end.

Grabbed my attention and held on!

What an amazing story!! I wish all psychological thrillers held my attention like this one. You'll hold your breath many times and you won't figure it out until the end. Well worth the money. I listened to the whole book in a day and have a really clean house!! 😀😀😀

Good story. Mind numbing descriptions

The story is excellent but the author goes on and on with descriptions or on tangents unrelated to the plot. Fortunately the story was strong enough to keep me listening through the mind numbing moments. I enjoyed the book but can't say I will seek more title by this author.

Excellent!

What a sharp twisted treat. Just enough mystery to keep you guessing right to the end. Hope there's a sequel!

Good not great

I thought the novel was well written and the narration was great. My only dislike would be it was slightly predictable. That being said I would definitely recommend!

OK

An interesting story where you hear the perspective from the parents of the missing child and from the "baddie". While I liked the build up, I was somewhat disappointed when I heard the big reveal and felt it was somewhat anticlimactic in my opinion. I will still listen to the next book by this author.

Very good story.

Easy to listen to, great narrator, good story. Characters are lifelike, believable, and evoked some emotion from me. I would recommend it.

Could have been shorter.

This book starts slow. It’s very interesting once it picks up but there were a lot of extra wordy parts that I would find myself zoning out.
