Alex Lake points a riveting and emotional picture of what Julia Crowne is feeling every moment of every day during the period her child is missing and the days after she returns. The climatic scene came with several surprises I did not anticipate, which I always enjoy. I probably read the last 100 pages in under an hour. All in all, a wonderful read and definitely recommend it. ( ) Erica_Coomer | Jul 13, 2018 | keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Srsly, that audiobook narrator needs to chill -_-
Well, the book was okay at the beginnig, then it became boring and repetitive, and it was not suspenseful at all, because you can easily and very early on guess who took Anna.
That's the review, the rest is just rant.
I'm 90% sure that Alex Lake is a guy because the main character, Anna's mum, is absolutely unbearable. She is hysterical and dumb (especially for a lawyer), i.e. "a woman seen through male gaze".
She goes around saying things like "I need a protector" (said no woman ever in the history of women). She finds herself a saviour (her male lawyer friend) because obviuosly being a woman she cannot do shit herself.
And, as she lies in a hospital bed after a crazy psycho tried to kill her, she promises to her good for nothing husband (the one who just agreed a few chapters earlier to take away her daughter from her by lying in court) to help deal with HIS trauma. Yeaaaah, right. (
