A first read for me from this author, I was reminded a lot of Linwood Barclay. The story is set with chapters spanning over days giving the reader the impression of following the investigation in real time.

Corina is a news anchor with a rags to riches type personal story, she’s made many an enemy in her career, and just as she’s let her families security team go, her son Gabriel disappears while walking home from school with his sister.

Corina quickly goes from delivering the news to being the news.

At times it was a little tricky to keep up with who was who, there are so many characters, so many motives and a huge lot of back story, perhaps it could’ve benefited from being condensed a little bit or even being set over a short series? In fact in saying that I could imagine this working well for tv.

Having said that, I couldn’t wait to get to the conclusion and find out what had happened to Gabriel and why. I certainly didn’t guess how it would turn out, I’d be keen to read more from the author.

I enjoyed the narration by Jenifer Jill.
