HOW CAN A CHILD VANISH WITHOUT A TRACE?

Last night, 8-year-old Daisy Mason disappeared from a summer party at her home. No one at the party noticed her leave. Even her parents aren't sure of the last time they saw her.

DI Adam Fawley is trying to keep an open mind. But he knows that in nine cases out of ten, it's someone close to the victim.

When a pair of bloody tights is discovered, Fawley's worst suspicions are concerned.

Someone knows where Daisy is.
And her time is running out.

Introducing DI Fawley and his team of Oxford detectives, CLOSE TO HOME is the new crime series readers and authors are raving about.

Critic reviews

A pro, with admirable command of pace and rising tension

A breathtaking denouement

Hunter keeps her readers guessing until the last page

Complicated story with weak narration

I found this book really difficult to listen to. The narrators kept changing the voice volume so i had to adjust my headphones accordingly. It’s so tedious listening to verbatum Twitter feeds where the date, time, Twitterhandles (about 5 each time) and message was spelled out. The story was too complicated and fussy, the characters so thin. Sorry but this is a no for me.
