Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Jenny Shephard is twelve years old and missing.

Her teacher, Sarah Finch, knows better than most that the chances of finding her alive are diminishing every day.

As a little girl Sarah's older brother went out to play and never come home. The strain of not knowing what happened to him tore her family apart.

When Sarah finds Jenny's body, beaten and abandoned in the woods near her home, she is drawn into the heart of the investigation and a media storm.

Her presence at the scene arouses suspicions. But it is not just the police that are watching her...

Irritating narrator

The narrator’s voice and characters are so distracting and cringy. It set raw fits from the writing. I’m half way through and will persevere as I usually love the author.

Really good story

Really enjoyed the plot and the characters, an enthralling listen, not sure about the narrator, I got more used to her as the story went on.

Waste of time

Can’t believe this is author of the Kerrigan series. The story is melodramatic, characters unconvincing and plot turns implausible. Very disappointed
