About this audiobook
"Yet another stick of literary dynamite from Adele Parks: chilling, gripping and entirely unputdownable." —Lisa Jewell, New York Times bestselling author
HAPPY. MARRIED. MISSING.
Leigh Fletcher: happily married stepmom to two gorgeous boys goes missing on Monday. Her husband, Mark, says he knows nothing of her whereabouts. She went to work and just never came home. Their family is shattered.
Kai Janssen: married to wealthy Dutch businessman Daan and vanishes the same week. Kai left their luxurious penthouse and glamorous world without a backward glance. She seemingly evaporated into thin air. Daan is distraught.
Detective Clements knows that people disappear all the time—far too frequently. Most run away from things, some run toward and others are taken but find their way back. A sad few never return. These two women are from very different worlds. Their disappearances are unlikely to be connected. And yet, at a gut level, the detective believes they might be.
How could these women walk away from their families, husbands and homes willingly? Clements is determined to unearth the truth, no matter how shocking and devastating it may be.
#1 Sunday Times bestselling author Adele Parks returns with her most provocative, compelling book to date.
Don't miss Adele's next book One Last Secret!

I don't understand why this has received several 4 and 5 stars! It boggles the mind that an author could so easily derail, what could have been a good mystery. By @ 35% I started to be irritated with the proverbial "blades of grass" filler just before an important moment, for eg., the police are expectedly knocking on the door but there is 3 mins of verbal inward toil. But, sad to say, this was nothing compared to how the author went off on a trajectory of the philosophical musings of, in a nutshell, men getting away with questionable morals versus women being branded "less than" for doing the same thing. As in, should women be bound by the law? - after all, it is a man made law!, ad nauseum. Let's not go into how our childhood can mould us to be immoral and therefore we're not at fault, or are we?, ad nauseum. I won't bother as to why the date March 2020 kept coming up... Pandemic turns society into a lawless state ... 5 stars to me for finishing.
