Missing. Vanished. Gone?

Josiane Kent is worried. Her friend Rose has posted zero photos on social media all week, despite being on holiday in Edinburgh, the most photogenic city ever. Not only that, she isn’t answering her phone. Something isn’t right. Josiane, along with Rose’s on-off boyfriend Matt and Val, Rose’s boss, starts investigating.

Meanwhile, lone wolf Eddie is mourning his grandad. Grandad always made sure Eddie kept his demons under control, but now, no one is helping and the demons are out.

Rose’s friends continue their search, but it isn’t until human remains are found in Grandad’s old garden that they realise what could have happened to Rose…

Wow – what a book! This is a real hold-your-breath, stay-up-all-night psychological thriller! Linda Huber is expert at getting inside the heads of her characters and presenting the complexities of human nature and morality. It’s all completely convincing. The result is a novel that drags you straight into the story from page one and doesn’t let you go until the end. Definitely a ‘just one more chapter’ book. Highly recommended.
