"Irresistible!"—James Patterson
A MISSING GIRL. AN ORPHANAGE FILLED WITH SECRETS.
Hazel wants a new life.
She’s thirty years old, single, and her private investigation business is months away from folding.
Her luck takes a turn when Madeline Hemsley, a mysterious socialite, pays Hazel a visit with an offer too enticing to resist. An orphan girl has disappeared from a children’s home—The Orphanage By The Lake, as the locals call it—and Madeline wants Hazel to find her.
At first glance, it appears to be a standard runaway case, but as Hazel plunges into the investigation, she finds signs of something more: unexplained blood stains, cryptic symbols, sinister figures shadowing her every move. The more she digs, the more she realizes that The Orphanage By The Lake holds terrifying secrets, and even worse…
…so does Madeline.
Fans of Freida McFadden's The Housemaid, Charlie Donlea's The Girl Who Was Taken, and Karin Slaughter's Pretty Girls will love this twisty, suspenseful thill-ride.

Captivity but predicted the ending.

This story had me suspicious of every single person that Hazel came across including those close to her. This was a well built up mystery with variety of characters.
The clues were dropped here and there for the reader to determine the outcome, but even if you are sure you know the answer, you probably don’t.
The narrator blew this one out of the park. They captured every character and had a unique and distinguished voice to keep them apart. They were on que for every emotion and perfected even the suspenseful moments. Plain and simple, this narrator executed an exquisite performance.
I highly recommend the book, especially the audiobook.
*This does contain some triggers so if you are sensitive to certain topics, proceed with caution.
Providing those triggers would contain spoilers, but they aren’t taken to the extreme. They are tactfully brought up and not romanticized.
