*****
Meg and her daughter Grace are the most beloved family in Ashford, the lynchpin that holds the community together.
So when Meg is found brutally murdered and her daughter missing, the town is rocked by the crime. Not least because Grace has been sick for years - and may only have days to live.
Who would murder a mother who sacrificed everything, and take a teenager away from the medication that could save her life? Everyone is searching for an answer, but sometimes the truth can kill you . . .

Critics Review
-
Intriguing characters and a storyline that suddenly throws everything in the air, I was completely hooked by this book
Heidi Perks
-
Grips to the very last page - a tense, twisted tale in which nothing is quite as it seems
T.M. Logan
-
Cleverly written and full of twists and turns
Jenny Quintana
-
Chilling and compassionate in equal measure, Grace is Gone is an emotionally-charged thriller that kept me reading long into the night. While undoubtedly a superior suspense novel, Elgar also excels in laying bare the often fragile bonds of supposedly close-knit communities. When the ending comes, be prepared to pick your jaw up off the floor
