Then She Vanished

Detective Gina Harte, Book 17

De: Carla Kovach

Narrado por: Alison Campbell

A completely addictive and unputdownable crime thriller

It’s dark as the young woman leaves work. Crossing the empty car park alone, she thinks about the warmth of her little house. But she doesn’t make it home that night. Or ever again…

Thirty years ago, Ruth Pritchard’s sixteen-year-old daughter, Elissa, went missing. Police were called, neighbours were interviewed, and even Ruth’s own husband was investigated, but the case went unsolved. Elissa disappeared forever.

Now, Ruth watches the local news and hears about another girl gone from the same streets where her beloved daughter was last seen, and her heart races. A distinctive red scarf was found at a crime scene, and she recognises it instantly. It belonged to Elissa.

After Ruth alerts the police, they rush to speak to her, but nobody answers the door. Her small home stands eerily quiet. Just like her daughter before her, Ruth has vanished into thin air.

Friends say that Ruth suspected someone close to home took Elissa. Others say she never trusted her husband again after he was questioned by police. Did she finally discover the truth behind her daughter’s disappearance? And will her friends and family ever see her again?

From bestselling author Carla Kovach, this absolutely gripping crime thriller is perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Cara Hunter and Clare Mackintosh.

Same subplot

Please resolve the issue of Gina’s past once and for all. Also - give her someone better than Briggs and her daughter. Those storylines are getting a little old.

Got lost in this one

For the love of this series.. CHANGE PC Kapoors horrible voice!!!! There were so many characters in this one & nicknames I got kind of lost. But I like this series. Sometimes I wish Gina wasn’t do emotional. But I’m glad Hanna wasn’t a part of this book. Lol
