About this listen
In her enthralling debut, Gilly Macmillan explores a mother's search for her missing son, weaving a taut psychological thriller as gripping and skillful as The Girl on the Train and The Guilty One.
In a heartbeat, everything changes....
Rachel Jenner is walking in a Bristol park with her eight-year-old son, Ben, when he asks if he can run ahead. It's an ordinary request on an ordinary Sunday afternoon, and Rachel has no reason to worry - until Ben vanishes.
Police are called, search parties go out, and Rachel, already insecure after her recent divorce, feels herself coming undone. As hours and then days pass without a sign of Ben, everyone who knew him is called into question, from Rachel's newly married ex-husband to her mother-of-the-year sister. Inevitably, media attention focuses on Rachel, too, and the public's attitude toward her begins to shift from sympathy to suspicion.
As she desperately pieces together the threadbare clues, Rachel realizes that nothing is quite as she imagined it to be, not even her own judgment. And the greatest dangers may lie not in the anonymous strangers of every parent's nightmares but behind the familiar smiles of those she trusts the most.
Where is Ben? The clock is ticking....

Unpredictable
I enjoyed this and look forward to reading the second book (bought without realizing there was a first 😆)
The narration was done well, the story was interesting and kept me guessing. Could have done without all the website quotes but otherwise it kept me engaged.

Enjoyable
I liked the story but some of the voices the narrators did really annoyed me. Glad I stuck it out though because the story was good

awful
What a waste of money. Kept listening and hoped it would get better. Very disappointing.
