Lisa Kallisto is devastated when her friend’s 13 year old daughter, Lucinda goes missing when she was to spend the evening and night at Lisa’s home with her own daughter, Sally. Feeling responsible for the situation, Lisa becomes the focus of anger for the family, but not everything is as it seems with her friend and her model family and to top things off, a number of young girls seem to be going missing.
A fast paced, highly enjoyable mystery/suspense/psychological thriller, which is a relatively quick read, and well captured the emotions of the characters involved.
A great introduction to D.C. Joanne Aspinall, whom I hope to read about again in future.

These are the kinds of mystery/crime books I like. In the same lines as Evelyn Piper’s Bunny Lake is Missing and Wendy James’ The Lost Girls. I definitely will check Paula Daly’s book out.
An absolutely great cover and title.
I also agree with rustygarnersmith’s comment. When we have so many blog to read short and to the point is very much appreciated. 🙂

I ordered Paula Daly’s novel and am eager to read it and compare it to the others I mentioned. Have a look at my post on Piper in my femme fatal series:
