What to expect

A heart-stopping new psychological thriller from international bestseller, Emily Elgar, inspired by a shocking true-life story

'Grips to the very last page - a tense, twisted tale' T.M. Logan, bestselling author of THE HOLIDAY

'I was completely hooked' Heidi Perks, bestselling author of NOW YOU SEE HER

*****

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
Caz Frear
Emily Elgar's latest psychological thriller takes dark twists and turns before arriving at a suitably unsettling conclusion
Woman & Home
Full of intrigue, suspense and rising tension. A beautifully written, gripping, suspenseful read
Karen Hamilton
What a book! A twisted story with such well-drawn characters. I grabbed every spare minute to finish it
Jo Jakeman
Enthralling . . . Twists and turns keep the reader guessing up to the satisfying ending. Along the way, Elgar wrestles with some engrossing ethical questions that will keep readers thinking long after they reach the end of the book
Publishers Weekly
I was completely gripped, horrified, nervous, suspicious . . . I think I felt ALL of the emotions while reading it
This will haunt you long after you have finished the final page
Heat
Grace is Gone is an expertly-crafted psychological thriller, shot through with lingering questions about how blurred the gap between guilty and innocent can sometimes turn out to be
