Ten-year-old Annie Warren hasn't made it home from school and with every passing hour, hopes of finding her alive are fading fast.
Her parents, Cathy and Kit, are frantic with worry, fearing the worst.
Could their daughter, the miracle child who came as a surprise to them both, have been abducted?

He has a unique reason for wanting to solve the mystery and to find Annie alive. But as he peels back the layers of deception and deceit Cathy and Kit have carefully crafted, he begins to suspect the truth of what's happened to her might lie much closer to home…

AJ Wills writes standalone psychological thrillers with twisty plots.
He’s a former journalist who wrote in his spare time, before and after work for ten years, until he was finally able to fulfil his lifelong dream of becoming a fulltime author in May 2021.
He’s never looked back and now runs a small independent publishing company, Cherry Tree Publishing with his wife, AJ McDine, also a thriller writer.
He said: “I've always loved thrillers, but psychological thrillers hold a special interest for me because they're about the scary, insane, disturbing things that happen to ordinary people - and we can all relate to them on some level.”
He lives in Kent in the south east of England.
