What to expect

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'An absolutely gripping reflection on the true crime phenomenon, and the various victims of both the initial crime and its exploitation for entertainment.’ NetGalley Reviewer

The perfect mystery to solve for fans of Holly Jackson and Cara Hunter.

***

A missing girl. An angry mother. A true crime documentary.

Ten years ago, Katy, a promising young journalist, left her desk and was never seen again.

Someone knows what happened to her…

The controlling boyfriend? The inappropriate professor? The clingy colleague?

When Katy went missing, it wasn’t just her devastated mother, Grace, whose life was ruined. Now, a new documentary delving into the missing person case threatens to open old wounds.

As Grace gets closer to the truth, she discovers just how far people are willing to go to keep the past hidden.
