The clock is ticking - and the search hasn't even begun . . .


Nina Landry has given up city life for the isolated community of Sandling Island. At night, the wind howls. Sometimes they are cut off by the incoming tide. But for Nina, it is home. It is safe.


But when Nina's teenage daughter Charlie fails to return from a sleepover on the day they're due to go on holiday, the island becomes a different place altogether. A place of secrets and suspicions. Where no one - friends, neighbours, even the police - believes Nina's instinctive fear that her daughter is in terrible danger.

Alone, she undergoes a frantic search for Charlie.

And as day turns to night, she begins to doubt not only whether they'll leave the island for their holiday - but whether they will ever leave it again . . .
