Book description
From the bestselling author of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
Take an ordinary, well-off family like the Prices. Watch what
happens when one Sunday seventeen-year-old Hannah disappears without a
trace. See how the family rallies when a ransom note demands half a
million pounds for Hannah's safe return.
But it's when Hannah comes home that the story really begins.
Now observe what happens to a family when they lose their house,
their status, all their wealth. Note how they disintegrate under the
pressures of guilt and poverty and are forced to confront their true
selves. And, finally, wait to hear about Hannah, who has the most
shocking surprise in store of all.
