Autor Jane Shemilten Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 sep 2015
'It's our son, Sam . . . someone took him. Please help us'
Emma hoped that she and her family would return from their year abroad closer, with memories to last a lifetime.
Instead, they returned minus one child.
A year on, Emma is haunted by their son's disappearance, and feels further than ever from her husband.
Is their child still out there somewhere?
Will the mystery about what happened that night ever be unravelled?
And, if the truth does come to light, will Emma's family be healed - or wrenched even further apart?

Recenzii
A dark twisty tale
Gripping tale
A gripping read about a family whose hopeful adventure turns into a nightmare
Suspenseful, brooding, and with touches of witchcraft - it makes for a perfect blend of horror and thriller
Shemilt specialises in the fictionalisation of parental nightmares . . . well written, taut and tense
I enjoyed this book from the first page . . . this book comes with a very enthusiastic recommendation . . . The story is all encompassing and I felt itchy with anticipation as I savoured every page
The parent's despair is so brilliantly written, you feel every stab of grief. The thrilling ending does not disappoint. A must-read!
Praise for Daughter
Utterly gripping. A tautly coiled spring of suspicion and suspense which builds to a devastating ending
Taut and thought-provoking
