Description

‘I was hooked from page one and couldn’t put it down until I’d reached the end. The twists and turns just keep coming … will have you gasping in surprise.’ Goodreads Reviewer, 5 stars

The little girl stirred and opened her eyes. A light from the landing played a shadow across her toy cupboard. It was then she realised… There was someone else in the room.

Michelle Harper’s world is shattered when six-year-old Lola Jade is stolen from the safety of her own bedroom. She says her ex-husband has taken their daughter. Lola’s father denies it was him.

Family, friends and neighbours all say they didn’t see a thing. But someone must know where the little girl is. Who is lying? And who is telling the truth?

Detective Rachel Prince knows the longer a child is missing, the less likely they are to be found alive.

Can Rachel find Lola Jade, before it’s too late?

Truly addictive from start to finish, Lola Is Missing is a nail-biting crime thriller that will shock you with the final heart-stopping twist. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Peter James and Karin Slaughter.

    It was a bit slow and I find the main character Rachel a bit dim. Not too bright personally nor in her job. She misses a lot of things and is always playing catch up it feels like.
  • 6 star book, for sure

    My only dislike of the book was the middle where things become extremely slow and repetitive. However, I loved that the majority of the book kept me on my toes. I read it in under 4 days. The major likes were the ending and the importance of each character, even the small intersections. Overall, I would recommend and consider this author to be an all time favorite.
  • It’s a Very Good Story

    I’m impressed with the story. I had my suspicion, but couldn’t figure it out until the end. The characters were fantastic and the story was interesting and sad.

    Lola Harper disappeared. The whole country joins her mother in hoping for her safe return. More than half a year passes and Detective Inspector Rachel Prince gets assigned to the case. Soon she discovers that some clues don’t quite add up. Will she piece them together and find the missing girl? Or is it already too late? An intriguing if horrifying story. Wrapped up in a way that felt satisfying if not altogether happy.
