Publisher's summary

Virtually no one in the village of Castillac holds out any hope. It has been seven years, after all. Seven years since the popular, mischievous Valerie Boutillier disappeared without a trace. The exertions of the gendarmes, led by Chief Dufort, yielded almost no clues, and his failure to solve the case had been one of the main reasons he quit the force.

But then a shred of evidence appears. It might be nothing. But Molly Sutton isn't afraid to grab hold of it and take it as far as she can.

Will a shred be enough?

And if Valerie is still alive, how will Molly and Ben ever find her in time?

A prisoner

I enjoy Nell’s writing style and the narrator, Becket, does a great job with the voices. During this coronavirus lockdown, it’s another way for me to be in France. Now onto Book 4.

Suspense in a beautiful setting

I love how the writer describes everything so clearly, you get a vivid picture of all of it.

Narrator Could be Better

I enjoy the stories, and I like the narrator, but it is difficult when all the voices sound identical, and none have French accents. It would help the audio book to have that added element.

Not In Keeping with the Series

A lot darker storyline than previous Molly Sutton stories. If I was looking for that type of book there are much better ones. This book could have used a lot more Molly and friends and a lot less “Silence of the Lambs”.

Not my favorite Sutton mystery

The theme of a girl held prisoner was creepy and the solving of the crime dragged. There were too many frustrating missed opportunities to tell the police. Molly and Dufort are appealing characters, however.
