About this listen

Two years ago, Beth turned her back on her three-year-old niece for just a few seconds. She disappeared without a trace.

One day, Beth receives a photograph from an anonymous number; she is sure it's a photograph of her niece. She is determined to find her and bring her home. But someone isn't pleased when Beth returns, and they will do what it takes to get rid of her for good.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book! Bits were slow but overall it was good. Loved the narrators accent

Thoroughly enjoyed

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Not a bad storyline although I felt I’d dragged on a little at times.
Didn’t see the ending coming which was good and held my attention.

Surprise ending

This book was slow, too descriptive with no depth to the characters. The main character was delusional, which could have been interesting, but was not utilised at all. The ending was ridiculous.

Average

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I found that the characters did not seem real enough in their roles, somehow. They seem to lack depth; at times inconsistant. I feel that perhaps a bit of tweaking would have
really made it shine.

Not quite rounded enough

So glad I didn't waste a credit on this nonsense. So badly written with an atrocious amount of padding. The protagonist is thoroughly irksome, making ridiculous decisions in order to drive what could loosely be described as the plot.
There is one character who is treated dreadfully, for very little reason, degrading people with learning disabilities or similar.
Another character ends up OK, even through they were thoroughly obnoxious and behaved unethically and unlawfully.. it all just seems to be forgotten.
I fast-tracked through a few hours and it was very, very easy to work out what had happened in the interim.
This would be the most scathing review I've written. I'm astounded at the good ones.
