Story
It's a night just like any other in the Conister home - but then Paul heads upstairs and never comes back. When his wife, Maggie, goes to see where he is, she can't find him. His phone and wallet are by the bed. The windows are locked from the inside. Paul has vanished. Missing persons investigator David Raker is an expert in locating the lost. So when he's hired by Maggie, he knows that in every disappearance - however impossible it seems - there's an answer. What he doesn't know yet is that his search for Paul Conister will become linked to three other mysteries.

Story
One year ago Alex Towne's body was found. One month ago his mother saw him on the street. One week ago David Raker agreed to look for him. Now he wishes he hadn't. Mary Towne's son, Alex, went missing six years ago. Five years later he finally turned up - as a corpse in a car wreck. Missing persons investigator David Raker doesn't want the work: it's clearly a sad but hopeless case of mistaken identity brought to him by a woman unable to let go of her son.

Story
It was an ordinary school day, the day I lost my little brother. One moment he was on the roundabout and then was gone. Gone. Missing. They all blamed me. I was in charge. Even though I was only ten years old. They sent me away. The hurt, the shame, the questions. The not knowing. I tried to move on. It’s been nineteen years in exile and now somebody wants me back. Someone with a dark secret.

Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Get ready to meet Rebekah.
Sunday Times best-selling author Tim Weaver is back with his first standalone.
Imagine you don't know your own darkest secret. But someone else does - and now they want you dead....
Exhausted single mother Rebekah Murphy leaves her daughters with a friend in the city to accompany her brother on a work assignment on a picturesque island. An hour after arriving, her and her brother are attacked.
He vanishes, she's left for dead and, by the time she makes it back to safety, it's already too late: the island has closed for the season - and it'll be seven months before anyone returns.
But even with her brother missing, even with no boats, phones or people, Rebekah will soon realise that finding a way back to the mainland is only the start of her nightmare.
Because someone is waiting for her - and they don't want her to make it home alive.

Not what I was expecting.
After having this book on pre-order forever, I was dismayed to see that the usual main narrator Joe Coen had been usurped. I spent the first 30 minutes waiting for Raker to appear. I thought this was unusual and more than a bit odd. In preparation for this book I binge read all the previous books in the Raker series. Finally the penny dropped and I realised that this was a stand-alone book. I was still disappointed - no Raker. Added to that, the scratchy male narrator just didn’t sit right for me. Having said that, (American narrator aside), I restarted the book and enjoyed it very much. I found it to have all the drama, attention to detail, and interesting characters, I have come to expect from this author. I would not hesitate to read more stand-alone books by Tim Weaver.

Missing Pieces
I was a tad disappointed that this was a standalone novel and not a David Raker mystery. Oh well. The book centres around British-born surgeon Dr Rebekah Murphy who finds herself stranded on a deseted island off of the coast of Long Island without her brother Johnny. The background is filled in as the book does along.
It was a long read and I got confused by the male narrator's different characters. There were certain plot points which made no sense. It was OK, but not one of his best.
Indira Varma was a great narrator.

A great story with lots of very well placed twists and turns. Loved the subtle nod to a certain other, well known character. Thank you Tim

Boring, lacklustre with dull characters.
Usually like Tim Weaver books, but this was just so boring. The characters were dull and it was difficult to empathise with any of them. Far too long and boring.

Rubik’s cube of a story, gripping.
Well crafted, intricate storyline, although it took me a while to understand what was going on - the author deliberately unpeels a bit at a time to keep you guessing - almost didn’t keep me listening a couple of times, especially as he is clearly thumbing a snub to his UK fans in favour of the more lucrative US audience. But I’m glad I persisted, because it got gripping in the second part. Loved his detective. (Not Raker, who only appears in a Hitchcock-style cameo, maybe indicating things to come). Beautifully read. Thank you!

Absorbing listen!
This is the first audiobook I’ve bought in AGES that lived up to and beyond expectation. No melodrama, tight plotting, and a very slow reveal.
Narrator was perfect. Will look for this pairing of author/narrator again.
More, please!
