A perfect village. A perfect crime.
When two young girls disappear from their primary school, the village of Heighington is put on high alert—and not for the first time. Called in to investigate, Detective Karen Hart is sure that parallels with a previous disappearance are anything but coincidental.
DS Hart is still reeling from a case she tried and failed to solve eighteen months ago, when a young woman vanished without a trace. She’s no nearer to the truth of what happened to Amy Fisher, but with two children missing now, too, the stakes have never been higher. As she looks to the past for clues, she must confront her own haunting loss, a nightmare she is determined to spare other families.
Hart soon realizes that nothing in this close-knit Lincolnshire community is what it seems. Pursuing the investigation with personal vengeance, she finds herself in conflict with her scrupulous new boss, but playing by the rules will have to wait. Because while there’s no shortage of suspects, the missing girls are running out of time....

One thing I liked about this book, because it seems like almost all of them are now about missing girls (can someone come up with an original idea?), was that we didn’t have to go back-and-forth between the detectives, the suspects, and the missing girls. It was such a relief not to hear the missing girl’s perspective. That has become really contrived and trite in this genre.
Last of all, there are some inconsistencies as follow:
The reference to what Jasper says Dean would likely do is considered absurd by the detectives when they considered and investigated that very possibility almost as recently as one or two chapters earlier.
Emily’s mum blames herself for the abduction because she didn’t pick the girls up from school even though everyone knows they snuck out of school before school was out
The narrator uses a voice for the culprit in the Prologue that bears no resemblance to the voice the culprit uses throughout the novel. I suppose this was to try to prevent listeners from guessing the identity which would have been difficult to ascertain from reading instead of listening to the book. I guessed the identity pretty early but I still felt this device was dishonest. Note to Authors: with the popularity of audiobooks, you may want to consider how something will read visually as well as audibly so this technique doesn’t have to be used. The omniscient narrator should never lie, only throw out red herrings.
This author has potential, narrator needs some coaching
