Sobre aquest llibre
Combining an unreliable narrator and fast-paced storytelling, C. L. Taylor’s The Missing is a chilling novel of psychological suspense.
“The Missing has a delicious sense of foreboding from the first page, luring us into the heart of a family with terrible secrets and making us wait, with pounding hearts for the final, agonizing twist. Loved it.” —New York Times bestselling author Fiona Barton
You love your family. They make you feel safe. You trust them.
Or do you. . . ?
When fifteen-year-old Billy Wilkinson goes missing in the middle of the night, his mother, Claire Wilkinson, blames herself. She’s not the only one. There isn’t a single member of Billy’s family that doesn’t feel guilty. But the Wilkinsons are so used to keeping secrets from one another that it isn’t until six months later, after an appeal for information goes horribly wrong, that the truth begins to surface.
Claire is sure of two things—that Billy is still alive and that her friends and family had nothing to do with his disappearance.
A mother’s instinct is never wrong.
Or is it. . . ?
“Dark, twisty, and utterly gripping . . . I absolutely loved it.” —Lucy Clarke, author of The Hike
“In addition to creating a strong suspenseful tone, Taylor explores how a family tragedy can impact each member differently. [The Missing] will appeal to fans of Sophie Hannah and Nicci French.” —Booklist
