Book Synopsis

Compulsively readable and masterfully plotted, Long Gone does not disappoint.

The nightmare was only just beginning…

After months of unemployment, Alice Humphrey lands her dream job – managing a Manhattan art gallery in the trendy Meatpacking District. According to recruiter Drew Campbell, the gallery is a passion of its anonymous owner, who remains uninvolved in its daily operations.

But she arrives one morning and walks into a nightmare: the space is empty except for the dead body of Drew Campbell. Alice soon finds herself at the centre of the police investigation.

When every thread of the investigation leads back to her, Alice knows she has been set up. But who is out to get her?



Trade Review

Michael Connelly: ‘this is smart, hip and always keeps you guessing. This is Alafair Burke's break out book. It's going to be big.’

Dennis Lehane: ‘Alafair Burke is one of the finest young crime writers working today’.

Harlan Coben: ‘The plot of an Alafair Burke thriller doesn’t just rip from the headlines. She’s one step ahead of them.’

Lisa Unger: This is a red-hot firecracker of a thriller with all the right stuff—perfect pacing, plotting, and suspense.’
