The little girl fidgets in her seat, wringing the ends of her scarf in a rush of panic. She tugs at the car door handle but it doesn't open. Tears well in her eyes. "I want my mommy."
Four years ago, six young girls were snatched from the streets of quiet, suburban Pioneer Heights-chilling, fake "missing" posters of each victim hung around town just before they were taken. Ex-police officer Sally Fairburn has always been haunted by the case and their inability to bring the girls home. Having lost her own daughter, she knows only too well the pain it brings...
Four years on, the wide brown eyes and neat braids of twelve-year-old Anna Moorhouse-the last girl to disappear-still plague Sally's dreams. She has never stopped fighting to bring the devastated families back together, but all leads have gone cold. Until Sally receives a chilling call out of the blue: their former main suspect, in prison for another crime, wants to talk to her... alone.
Desperate for answers, Sally races to interview him. But a horrifying discovery stops her in her tracks: a missing poster-on her daily running route, in the same style used four years ago-with Sally's own face on it...
Not only is Sally in grave danger, but the more threats she receives, the more convinced she becomes that the killer is a lot closer to home than she ever could have imagined... But can Sally finally catch him before any more innocents disappear-and before Sally herself becomes his next victim...?
Fans of Lisa Regan, Greg Olsen and Melinda Leigh will love this gripping new crime thriller series. Prepare to stay up all night!
