Publisher's summary

The little girl peered down the dark alleyway. She knew she wasn’t supposed to take this shortcut, and her mother would kill her if she found out, but it was raining and all she wanted was to get home quickly. She stepped forward, not seeing the silent figure following her into the dark passageway....

When nine-year-old Charlotte Standish goes missing from her street in the small town of Rydale Falls, it sparks a media frenzy. Detective Morgan Brookes leads a frantic hunt for the girl, but little Charlie seems to have vanished into thin air.

Chasing up a lead at Charlie’s school, Morgan is chilled to learn that this isn’t the first time a child has gone missing on this street. Another girl disappeared 15 years ago, and Morgan is the only one who thinks the cases could be related. But in the moment that she takes her eye off Charlie’s case to investigate the link between the two girls, another child, Macy, goes missing.

Then Morgan gets the call she was dreading, Charlie’s lifeless body has been found in a local park, lying in the shadow of a large tree. Morgan has let one girl down, but she refuses to give up on Macy. Determined to find an overlooked clue, she retraces Macy’s last steps. She’s getting close to the truth when her partner, Detective Ben Matthews, is attacked outside Morgan’s home. Is a twisted killer isolating Morgan from her team? And how long does Macy have left to live? Morgan must solve the case before more innocent lives are taken....

A nail-biting crime thriller that will keep you up all night, for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbott, and Patricia Gibney.

Great Book, BUT...

This was such a great book, but after 3 books I have to wonder how Morgan is still so gullible and it always puts her in danger, but I guess that is the point...

Jeesh, getting repetitive

All three books in this series ended in almost the exact same way. This is starting to get repetitive. Plus, it literally stole scenes out of a movie Morgan says she really enjoyed. I really hope the books get a little more realistic soon. It's getting to the point where Morgan is better than the police detectives who were there before her. Should be a team, not just the same thing over and over.

Great Author, Series, & Narration

I have been thoroughly enjoying this series! I highly recommend it! It’s a mystery, but also not gory and bloody. The storyline is easy to follow and you feel a personal connection to the main characters as you get to know them and their relationships.
