About this listen

I planned the perfect vacation. But now my son is missing

Everyone believes my husband Donovan and I have it all—a loving marriage, two adorable children and the dream house. But beneath the surface of our enviable American lifestyle lies a secret that binds us tighter than our vows.

I thought we could keep the truth buried forever, but I was wrong. To protect the secrets of my past, we have to go to Ireland to find the woman who has the power to shatter my perfect family. And I'm prepared to do whatever it takes to stop her.

Except my plan for revenge has gone horribly wrong. And now my eight-year-old son Barnaby is missing.

My body trembles as I scan the sunny spot where I last saw him. But there's no sign of Barnaby's blue t-shirt and sandy blonde hair.

Who has taken my son? I thought I was in control but now I fear this whole vacation was a trap. Can I save my family, or will our lives be destroyed forever?

From the number one bestselling author of The Doctors Wife, a completely addictive psychological thriller! Perfect for fans of T.M. Logan, Freida McFadden and John Marrs.

Shocking

As always, I thought I had it all figured out until I didn't. There are so many twists and turns I got whiplash! This is an awesome book and I really encourage you to read it.

Good story but issues with language

The repeated reference to “real” mother was cringy to me and may be considered offensive. Adoptive, step and foster parents are “real” , just like children who are adopted, fostered or part of blended families are “real”.

The lead female isn’t right about much but she hits the nail on the head when she identifies that mom is the woman who takes care of you day in and day out for at least 1/4 of their life.

The correct term is biological or birth mother, and while scientifically classified as a parent, biology is actually the least of what defines mothering.

Once I got into the story I enjoyed the tale and was surprised by the ending. Overall decent read.

Description of book is not accurate!


It's important to note that this is not a child abduction/missing child thriller, as stated on the book cover.

Instead, it's a book about revenge and the worst possible scenarios of child adoption.

Even though the publisher's blurb/book cover was inaccurate, I enjoyed this fun, twisty, and super-engaging thriller by Daniel Hurst.

Both narrators did an outstanding job with the narration.

Keeps you riveted

I did really like this one. The plot and bad protagonists were revealed relatively early. It was fun to see how deceptive they could be. I did predict the ending but I usually do. This didn’t detract from wanting to know specifics. Enjoyed listening to this in one go.

Narration was excellent for the characters both good and bad!!
