The Missing Children Case Files: Case 5

‘Mind-blowingly addictive!’ Samantha Lee Howe, USA Today-bestselling author of The Stranger in Our Bed

They say memory is everyone’s friend…

Twenty years ago a girl was snatched from the Isle of Portland and the world kept on turning. Her name was Anna Hunter. And her sister’s world ground to a halt.

They say memory leaves you when you need it most…

Emma Hunter is now a bestselling investigative journalist renowned internationally for her vigilante crusade to solve the string of missing children cases ravaging the south of England.

They never say memory rushes back when you want it least…

But it’s always been about Anna. Every word of every page of every book. And so when a new case crashes like the waves of that fateful beach onto her desk, she doesn’t hesitate. Because this one’s different. The girl was found, she survived, and now she’s begun to remember.

The fifth sleep-stealing instalment in The Missing Children Case Files is an unputdownable crime thriller about how far the human mind will go to protect itself, and the damage wreaked in its wake – perfect for fans of Michael Wood and Helen Fields.
