About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Best-selling psychological suspense and a top Richard & Judy selection.

She was 15, her mother's golden girl.

She had her whole life ahead of her.

And then, in the blink of an eye, Ellie was gone.

Ten years on, Laurel has never given up hope of finding Ellie. And then she meets a charming and charismatic stranger who sweeps her off her feet.

But what really takes her breath away is when she meets his nine-year-old daughter.

Because his daughter is the image of Ellie.

Now all those unanswered questions that have haunted Laurel come flooding back.

What really happened to Ellie? And who still has secrets to hide?

Critic Reviews

"Packs a huge emotional punch that will leave you winded." (CL Taylor, author of The Missing)

Well written and a thrilling storyline. The multiple charter narrators works very well and the author creates a sense of connection between the characters and the reader.

It is quite confronting and is not kind of story you can share with your work collages.

Sensational Thriller

I really enjoyed this book. Incredible plot twist and narration.
As a parent, your greatest fear is to lose your child. To have no idea where your child is and what happened is simply heart breaking.
The characters in the story were crafted with empathy and compassion. I was completely riveted with the story and where the plot would lead - wow.

Excellent

Early on, I wanted to stop reading it. I have a daughter, after three sons, who's now eight. But I had to finish it. It's so well written; and, unfortunately, a storyline that can and has happened.

Heartbreaking, compelling
