Book description
What should have been a happy family day out quickly becomes a nightmare…
The chilling debut from a bright new talent.
What should have been a happy family day out quickly turns into a
nightmare for Jess Finnegan. One minute she is thankful for a few
minutes' peace away from the demands of motherhood. The next she is
frantically searching for husband Mickey and 8-month old Louis. They
have disappeared, nowhere to be seen. As the police launch a massive
manhunt, Jess's panic intensifies.
Then Mickey is found, badly beaten - and alone. Where is Louis? Is he
still alive? Could he be the victim of child trafficking or something
much closer to home? Just how well does Jess know her new husband? And
when her wayward brother turns up out of the blue, what is he after? As
the investigation unravels, Jess discovers that the people closest to
you are not always what they seem… 'An accomplished, disturbing debut '
