About this listen
Two kidnappings, thirty years apart. Can Stacey face her own dark past in order to save her stepdaughter?
When Stacey’s ex-husband turns up on her doorstep begging her to help save his kidnapped thirteen-year-old daughter, Lyra, the terror is all too familiar. Stacey’s own violent kidnapping thirty years ago was never solved, and while a severe case of amnesia spares her from recalling the specific horrors, she remembers enough…
Stacey knows her father never paid the ransom—she has the missing pinkie finger to prove it. She knows she was only saved because of an anonymous tip-off to the police. And she knows her captor was never apprehended.
Lyra’s kidnappers have made it clear the police must not get involved. But Stacey can’t shake the eerie similarities between the two cases, and she’ll use whatever she can, from her journalistic powers to her shady contacts, to save Lyra from the same nightmare. Desperate to find any link between Lyra’s abduction and her own, Stacey forces herself to revisit her forgotten, traumatic past for clues.
But can she make sense of the terrible secrets she unearths in time to save Lyra? And if she does, is she ready to face her own tormentor?

So disappointed
I have read and loved all Carol Wyer books … but this book is certainly not her usual standard, it is more short story padded with unwanted waffle! and the narrator just adds to the let down!

Too long
A decent book but quite predictable went on too long which meant it got boring towards the end .

Boring and far too long
This author really needs a good editor. Uses far too many words when a brief sentence would' be much more appropriate: 'a fleeting frown creased his brow': why not say 'he frowned' and all the chapters reflecting what had happened to Stacey years before seemed to have no relevance at all. I'm only three hours from the end and I am totally fed up with hearing about Stacey and her silly friend and all her memories triggered by thinking she's sitting in a cinema. And don't get me started on the silly name of the missing girl - who on earth would call a child Lyra. Narrator far too dead pan and also does far too much shouting. Sticking with this to see if who I think did the deed is the right one but certainly won't be purchasing any more by this author.

Repetitive
The plot should have been quite readable but too much unnecessary repetition of Stacey's kidnapping experience at age sixteen and her councillor's weird theories straight afterwards to help her deal with it. Far too wordy for my taste.
