Visiting the fairground with her grandmother Jill, seven year old Beatrice disappears. Jill only took her eyes off her for seconds, didn’t she?
Told in both Jill and Beatrice’s mother Claire’s point of views, we follow their lives from the moment Bea goes missing. How and why their relationship is so fractured and them frantically searching for Bea.
This is a mother’s worst nightmare, especially when she wasn’t there when it happened. Guilt and betrayal play a big part in this.
This was a great thriller, with a great storyline and very well written. Giving you red herrings throughout and leaving you shocked at who the actual kidnapper was.
Shalini Boland has done it again, another fantastic read!
