Missing Daughter

Totally Gripping Psychological Suspense with Heart-Stopping Twists

De: Kiersten Modglin

Narrado por: Kate Handford, Adam Sims

When I wake up with the sun in my eyes the morning after my daughter’s birthday party, I know something is very wrong. I go straight to her room but feel a surge of panic when I see an empty bed. Downstairs everything is totally quiet, and the front door is locked. Why didn’t I hear her scream? Who took our little girl?

My husband says I’ve been struggling since Skylar was born and that sometimes I forget things. But I remember every moment of my daughter’s party - including him locking the door after our family and friends left. Yes, we both had a drink and I slept heavily but I know I would have heard my child cry. A good mother always does.

My therapist says I need to stand up for myself. She wants me to confront my husband about the woman I heard him talking to the other night when he thought I was asleep. And about the child’s toy that I found that does not belong to Skylar. Is he hiding something?

But as the hours race by I soon realize I was totally wrong about everything that happened that night. I thought I’d put my past behind me long ago but I was wrong. All I know is this: I’ll do whatever it takes to save my child.

Will you believe me?

A heart-pounding, unbelievably twisty psychological thriller that will have you sleeping with the light on! Fans of Gone Girl, Behind Closed Doors, and The Stepdaughter will be utterly gripped.

Rating as a movie: R

My rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️½🎂🎁🥳👨‍👩‍👧

My thoughts: 📱 6% 37:24 Chapter 3 - Has a midtempo start with a lot of potential. The title tells the plot so we're just waiting for it to happen.
📱10% 1:04:44 Chapter 5 - This is interesting, I'm curious about the bombs but I have my speculations.
📱29% 3:11:37 Chapter 14 - This is enjoyable but not exciting ... yet.

This was okay. I was worried for a minute so there was suspense, it was a bit predictable but I still was on the edge of my seat at moments. I had to keep reminding myself the daughter was 2 because of her complex sentences, but it worked.

Recommend to others: Yes. This could be a Lifetime movie.

Good Story

Here are my criticisms w NO spoilers. 1. There is zero chance in H that a 2yr old child speaks that extensively. 2. I suppose we can chalk it up to mental illness, but there are a million more sane/effective ways that protagonist could have executed the plan.

lifetime.

it was a pretty good book and the performance was very well done, I just felt like it could have been a Lifetime movie.

Plot took awhile to develop

Good but it took forever to get to the real plot. Agree with a previous review that the child in the story talked too well for the age she was. narrator's voice as a child was cringey.

Fabolous

Omg the ending and the twists to this. Phenomenal! Kierstem writes like no other her thrillers are addicting!

Good story that will keep u guessing!

I listen to a lot of audio books and I have really want to love the story but also love the narrator! This book accomplishes both! Wil be listening to another one by same author soon!

Loved it

Best book I’ve read in a long time! And I read a lot I’m totally looking into more from this author

Not what I expected

The book is alright. If you’re looking for a book about postpartum depression and the effects it has on a the family. Otherwise… the first 3 hours has nothing to do with a missing child. Im on chapter 20 and Im still waiting for the “thriller” part to come in.

Not What You Thought

Interesting and multiple twists... Not what you think is going to happen. Definitely, not the anticipated end. Good, quick read which keeps you interested and invested.

Not a believable story line

Nothing about this story seemed realistic to me. I knew who the bad guy was from the very beginning and the main character was such a whiny snot that I could not even enjoy the story because I’m thinking how awful this is the entire time! I listened to the entire book to give it a fair chance to get better and it never did. Don’t waste your time!
