Charlotte is looking after her best friend’s daughter the day she disappears. She thought the little girl was playing with her own children. She swears she only took her eyes off them for a second.
Now, Charlotte must do the unthinkable, tell her best friend Harriet that her only child is missing. The child she was meant to be watching.
Devastated, Harriet can no longer bear to see Charlotte. No one could expect her to trust her friend again.
Only now she needs to. Because two weeks later Harriet and Charlotte are both being questioned separately by the police. And secrets are about to surface.
It is easy to feel for Charlotte, I think it is every persons nightmare who has ever been responsible for a child. I enjoyed how the author used the public anger, the 'I am way better than you and that would not happen to me' behaviour by everyone in their surrounding. Specially with the internet these days those discussions are happening all the time and it was recognizable.
The developments in the story are interesting and there was not much to giveaway the end despite the fact that the book followed a certain predictable thriller development line. Fast paced and gripping.
