Stolen Things

A Novel

De: R. H. Herron

Narrado por: Xe Sands

With one call, her daughter’s life is on the line.

Laurie Ahmadi has worked as a 911 police dispatcher in her quiet Northern California town for almost two decades, but nothing in her nearly twenty years of experience could prepare her for the worst call of her career—her teenage daughter, Jojo, is on the other end of the line. She is drugged, disoriented, and in pain, and even though the whole police department springs into action, there is nothing Laurie can do to help.

Jojo, who has been sexually assaulted, doesn’t remember how she ended up at the home of Kevin Leeds, a pro football player famous for his work with the Citizens Against Police Brutality movement, though she insists he would never hurt her. And she has no idea where her best friend, Harper, who was with her earlier in the evening, could be.

As Jojo and Laurie begin digging into Harper’s private messages on social media to look for clues to her whereabouts, they uncover a conspiracy far bigger than they ever could have imagined. With Kevin’s freedom on the line and the chances of finding Harper unharmed slipping away, Laurie and Jojo begin to realize that they can’t trust anyone to find Harper except themselves, not even the police department they’ve long considered family . . . and time is running out.

Worth a credit

This was a really good book.
It was the author’s first book (I think?? ..she wrote it under a pseudonym). It was fast paced and unpredictable. She was once a 911 dispatcher herself, which helped give perspective into a world most of us don’t get to experience.
I’ll be watching for other books written by her.

Unexpected and well made!

Thrilling in parts, subtle in others. This book has the knowledge and background in policing to back it up. It's a rare thing and I love it. A genuinely good read. Worth it.

Great suspense

Great story loved how I wasn’t able to truly figure it out till almost the end of the book

Timely story

I really loved this book. Lots of twists and it was paced well and I would recommend. I’ve read the authors other titles under her real name and I enjoyed their sweetness, but this book is totally different and equally enjoyable! The relationship between the mother and daughter is particularly well done.

the narration was phenomenal as well as the story

I am blown away how amazing this story is. yes there are sensitive subjects but it was done so well! I read hundreds of books a year and this one is probably one of my top favorites! I will definitely read more by this author. r.h. herron is the pseudonym for Rachael herron. I'm hoping she writes more thriller/suspense books.

A great book

I really enjoyed this one. The narrator was fantastic and I look forward to more novels of this narrarator. Great story too.

A great story of triumph

R.H. Herron has made her mark in this genre. Loved the mother-daughter mystery-solving team, twisty turns, flawed characters, depths of a mother’s love. Highly recommended!

compelling story

interesting plot great narrative, I support our police and black lives matter. I honor the police who believe both.

WORTH THE CREDIT!

I know you will see reviews stating this story is too far fetched and that the use of 16 yr old girls is wrong, but those reviews are wrong. Rape and sexual abuse happens to all ages. Black lives do matter. This story is a reflection of our society. if one ignores it, it will only get worse.

This was a fantastic, fast paced story and performance! It's worth it!!

Best book ever!!

All i can say is wow!!! I don’t think the story is true because the author says that it is not, but it’s one of the Most realistic intricate plots ever. I have never been a huge mystery… police....Reader enjoying more historical fiction but this has changed my opinion! Love love love must-read
