Numbness floods my body as I stumble up the steps leading to my house. Inside I know my five-year-old's bed is empty, her dresser is ransacked, her overnight bag is gone. I can see her dolls lying untouched through the window of our perfect family home - in the place where I thought I could protect her forever. My daughter is missing.




You'd think my first instinct would be to call the police.




But I know who's taken my daughter.




And I know that the police can't help me.




Only I can convince the woman who has my baby to give her back. She thinks she knows my secrets... but she has no idea.




Fans of Liane Moriarty, Sally Hepworth and The Girl on the Train will love this utterly unputdownable domestic thriller from USA Today bestselling author Nicola Marsh.
