About this listen
“Twisty and complex, with unexpected turns…and characters you really root for.”—Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author
From the author of the Reese’s Book Club Pick and the New York Times bestseller Wrong Place Wrong Time comes a new heart-stopping thriller in which a missing-person case unravels deeper, darker secrets that lead a detective to an impossible moral choice.
Not everyone who is lost should be found…
Twenty-two-year-old Olivia has been missing for one day…and counting. She was last seen on CCTV, entering a dead-end alley. And not coming back out again.
Julia, the detective heading up the search for Olivia, thinks she knows what to expect. A desperate family, a ticking clock, and long hours away from her husband and daughter. But she has no idea just how close to home this case is going to get.
Because the criminal at the heart of the disappearance has something she never expected. His weapon isn’t a gun, or a knife: it’s a secret. Her worst one. And her family's safety depends on one thing: Julia must NOT find out what happened to Olivia - and must frame somebody else for her murder.
If you find her, you will lose everything. What would you do?
This clever and endlessly surprising thriller is laced with a clever look at family and motherhood, and cements Gillian McAllister as a major talent in the world of suspense and a master of creating ethical dilemmas that show just how murky the distinction between right and wrong can be.

It's the end of a night out and Joanna is walking home alone. Then she hears the sound every woman dreads: footsteps behind her, getting faster. She's sure it's him—the man from the bar who wouldn't leave her alone. So Joanna makes a snap decision. She turns, she pushes. Her pursuer tumbles down the steps and lies motionless, facedown on the ground. Now what?

I enjoyed the narration. Story was a bit slow and the ending was slightly confusing. It was fine but wouldn't recommend overall.

I liked the ending and the narrators did a good job but the first 2/3rds dragged on and it was confusing I kept having to go back. Maybe better as an actual reading book but wasn’t great on audio.

Interesting twists but unappealing characters
I only liked two of the main characters in this book and neither was the protagonist. I had trouble rooting for her. In fact I found myself rooting against her.
It was a bit slow and confusing at first but picked up and made more sense further into the story with a couple of good twists.
Performances were good.

I enjoyed this audiobook but I am only giving it three stars because it had almost too much going on and it was not very realistic or believable at times. It was entertaining none the less.
