*****

‘Just finished this BRILLIANT book… Clever, addictive and twisty, I couldn’t sleep until I found out the truth… The twist floored me! Utterly compelling from beginning to end’ Claire Douglas

‘Made me stay up way beyond my bedtime!’ Jane Corry

Finn and Layla: young and in love, their whole lives ahead of them. Driving back from a holiday in France one night, Finn pulls in to a service station, leaving Layla alone in the car. When he returns, minutes later, Layla has vanished, never to be seen again. That’s the story Finn tells the police. It’s the truth – but not the whole truth.

Twelve years later, Finn has built a new life with Ellen, Layla’s sister, when he receives a phone call. Someone has seen Layla. But is it her – or someone pretending to be her? If it is her, what does she want? And what does she know about the night she disappeared?

Bring Me Back is the utterly compelling, white-knuckle thriller from Sunday Times bestseller B A Paris, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden.

Good plot with an unexpected twist at the end, but the whole thing dragged for a bit too long though. Vivid and believable narration, could be too shouty at times but that's to sustain the drama so understandable. Overall a decent story.

Oh boy, what a story! We were gripped all the way through. The narration was excellent, voices so clear, it was like listening to a play with the way the man and woman read their own chapters.
Really can't fault this book, the only disappointment was getting to the end!
