About this listen
"Mummy, she’s gone...."
Gemma Ballantine is getting ready for work one morning when her eldest child comes running down the stairs saying the words every mother dreads.
The front door is open. And her six-year-old daughter has disappeared. Frantic with fear, Gemma starts a nail-biting search for her little girl.
After what feels like forever, her mother-in-law, Diane, finds Katie wandering lost a few streets away. Relieved to have her youngest child back in her arms, breathing in the sweet scent of her hair, Gemma thinks the nightmare is over.
But then her perfect family starts to fall apart.
And she realizes it’s only just beginning....
From the top ten best-selling author of The Secret Mother and The Child Next Door, this completely addictive psychological thriller of secrets, lies, and betrayal will make you gasp out loud at the heart-stopping final twist. If you loved Gone Girl, The Girl on the Train, and The Sister, this book is for you.

I enjoyed this book. Perfect for my road trip
I bought this book for two reasons. One -- I like psychological thrillers and this one looked to be decent to me and the reviews were decent; and two I was going on a road trip of approximately 8 hours and the length of the book was appealing to me. It worked out perfectly.
At first I did not like the breathy, whispery voice of the narrator, but it got better as the book went on. The twist at the end was something I had thought about while listening to the book. All in all an enjoyable read on an enjoyable road trip. I finished the book with about 20 minutes left in my trip.

Gripping
This book kept me intrigued from start to finish. Never expected the ending, I would never have guessed.

a little long, but worth the twist!
I could feel this character in myself! trying just to make it through the day with kids and a small business. I could feel her frustration! it's a great story. I guessed the ending but then assumed I was wrong, only to be proven right. very good narrator!

Anticlimactic
Performance was good but it was one of the slowest, most anticlimactic stories I have ever read / listened to. Disappointing for sure.

what a terrible book!
I can't believe the reviews! this is hands down the worst book I've read. SO boring. The author must have decided that a shocking ending will make up for a drabby book
