WOW! I am going to have to go back to read the first book about Anna. This book was amazing! Anna gets on a plane to visit her father and disappears. Meanwhile, her little brother disappears from practice. There were so many people I suspected in this book, but I guess now looking back, it was always obvious on the kidnapper. So many twists in this story. So many little storylines which lead the reader to think all these other innocent characters were in on it. I powered through this. So good!

I loved this! As a general rule, I despise missing child novels as they're so overdone, but this really brought something new and different.

The writing style was really enjoyable, I like how even minor characters got their own little backstories, to me that made the whole thing more absorbing. I also loved that the chapters had headings! I'm not sure when chapter headings stopped being a regular thing, but I enjoyed seeing them.

The story itself was really fascinating to follow - I love an impossible mystery so Anna managing to disappear in an airport with heavy security and CCTV really caught my attention, and I just had to see how it would all play out.

I would absolutely recommend this book.

If you enjoy a tense thrilling read this is for you.
Just enough main characters and fabulous build up to how it all happened.
This is in my top five of the books i have read this year and i cannot praise enough.
My thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

I read my first Alex Lake book about 5 years ago, and let me tell you, I'm still outraged by one of the characters!
So, I went into this one with high expectations.
Did not disappoint.
Some fab characters, and tense moments.
The worried parents, the false leads, and the nail biting run up to the end.
Took me a while to put the clues together, but thrilled to get there before the book told me.
All really well done.
