Book Synopsis

THE UNMISSABLE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER WITH A SHOCKING TWIST

''Haunting . . . this story will stay with you'' Jane Corry, author of My Husband''s Wife & The Dead Ex

Would you risk your life to save a stranger?

___________

A local schoolgirl has been missing for weeks when Margot Lewis, agony aunt of the ''Dear Amy'' advice column, receives a letter:

Dear Amy,

I''ve been kidnapped by a strange man.
I don''t know where I am.

Please help me,
Bethan Avery

This must be a hoax. Because Bethan Avery is another young girl, who went missing twenty years ago.

As more letters arrive, Margot becomes consumed by finding the sender and - unlike the police - convinced that the girls'' disappearances are connected.

Solving this puzzle could save someone''s life - but could it also cost Margot her own?
