About this listen
A heart-stopping, gripping thriller for fans of C. L. Taylor, Karin Slaughter, and Linwood Barclay
On the tenth anniversary of her daughter Autumn's abduction, Francine receives an anonymous note containing just five words: I know where she is.
When a young woman approaches her the next day claiming to have sent the letter, Francine wants to dismiss it as a cruel, twisted joke. But the stranger knows things that only Autumn would know.
Francine discovers that danger comes from unexpected sources. She will do things she never imagined herself capable of. But will she get her daughter back – or is it too late?

It's disappointing, because the story does have promise. And, to the author's credit, it does certainly hook you in. I was intrigued until the end. However, the story leaves you disappointed. It's completely unbelievable to the point of where I stopped trying to read it as a 'real world' novel, and just made the decision that this was some dystopian universe in which the proceedings could happen. Without spoiling anything, the situation itself that has happened to the daughter, is impossible, considering all facts. The mission the mother then goes on - and succeeds - is also borderline fantasy, in that she encounters little to no hurdles. The author even throws in a line toward the end, the mother (or daughter, can't remember), saying "we've been so lucky so far" which seems a little lazy...why not just write it realistically to start with, and then not have to patch it over with a character's monologue?
Lastly, the lack of consequence is laughable. Again, the writer has tried to give reason, but it just does not line up.
The story leaves a couple questions unanswered (namely: who is the real father, really?) which may potentially lead into a sequel, but left this novel at a bit of a rushed and loose-ended finale.
As for the narrator, unfortunately, I found all voices bar the protagonist, absolutely unbearable. I disliked the other characters before they were even introduced correctly, simply because of the voices which manage to be needy, greasy, hoarse and somehow ugly in tone, every time. It didn't ruin the novel for me, but was unfortunate.
Allover, I enjoyed the experience listening to it - the suspense is very present - however, would not recommend as a work of literature in any form. I liken it to a novel that overdoes it with the erotica, in that we don't dislike the novel, however we're not proud to sell out on our appreciation of literature for the cheap thrill.
