Publisher's summary

Don't miss this shocking psychological thriller by best-selling author J.A. Baker

Missing without trace...

When local woman Deborah goes missing, her colleagues Adrian, Yvonne and Merriel are all left in shock. Gossip around the office begins to swirl – what could have happened to Deborah? Is she dead or alive? And who could be responsible for her disappearance?

Everyone is terrified that they could be next…except the one person who has all the answers. The last person people expect.

Because Deborah is being held captive by a monster, a psychopath. But not a stranger… it’s someone she knows all too well…

Perfect for fans of Sue Watson, Valerie Keogh and K.L. Slater.

Meh

The storyline was good but it got a little boring. Plus I never figured out why Beth and Adrian were in the story. The ending was a little fuzzy.

No twist?

I don’t know why this was under thriller/mystery it was just a story. Wasn’t terrible but no substance.

Engaging and suspenseful

I don't understand all the low ratings or complaints. I found this book to be very engaging and suspenseful. I figured out some of the twists but not all. My first read by this author and will definitely being reading more.

NOPE

I sincerely do not like giving negative reviews, but I just had to rate this. I felt it was a bit of a waste of time really. Characters were not engaging, and other than their names, there was little to distinguish one from the other. (It gets particularly confusing in audiobook version). Hopefully the author will get better with practice.
