Book Synopsis
You’ll never find her. Don’t even try.

‘DARK AND TWISTY’ Riley Sager

‘LOVED EVERY MINUTE’ Joshilyn Jackson

When a local mother and her six-year-old daughter, Delilah, suddenly vanish, their close-knit suburban community is rocked by fear and suspicion. How could such a terrible thing have happened in their small town?

Then, eleven years later, Delilah shockingly reappears. Everyone wants to know what really happened to her. But there are secrets hidden deep in the past – and when the truth about those missing years begins to surface, no one is prepared for what they’re about to find out.

Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Claire Douglas and Freida McFadden
