Little Girl Vanished

Harper Adams Mystery, Book 1

De: Denise Grover Swank

Narrado por: Shannon McManus

With a friend’s child missing, and the police failing, disgraced ex-detective Harper enlists the aid of a former crime boss to untangle a mystery that strikes too close to home.

Disgraced, ex-detective Harper Adams is perfectly content wallowing at rock bottom. She’s lost her job, house, and reputation, and it only gets worse when she’s forced to move back home to Jackson Creek, Arkansas, the one place she swore she’d never return.

But everything changes when she gets chilling news. A childhood friend’s daughter is missing...and it’s eerily reminiscent of Harper’s sister’s kidnapping and murder two decades ago.

Not her business.

Except with the police fumbling the case at every turn, Harper realizes she might be the only one who can save the girl.

And she might need the help of James Malcolm, a former crime boss, to do it.

Great story

Denise is excellent story writer! She has my attention from page one. Just wish the audiobook was released on the same day as the paperback.

Harper Adams

I really enjoyed the story of Harper Adams mystery. Looking forward to the next book.

He’s back? You mean SHE’S back!!!

I’m absolutely thrilled with this new series by Denise Grover Swank! It was everything that I needed and wanted! This book will draw you in from page one and you will have devoured it before you know it. Harper is amazing and I’m over the moon that James Malcom and even Carter Hale are back in the game. The only flaw is that now I must wait for book two!

Shannon McManus does a phenomenal job with the characters. She embraced each one and gave them so much depth. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her work.

The story line

Denise did it again! Made me fall for another book of hers. I couldn’t stop listening (even if I fell asleep a few times and had to start over lol) the story line was amazing and bringing my favorite character from the Rose books made my heart so happy. I can’t wait to dive into the second book!!

Great storyline and kept you wanting more!

Loved this sequel! Can’t wait for the next one! DGS has done well with making you still like Harper even though she is having a hard time

The truthfulness of the story. It was totally believable.

Of all the recent crime novels I’ve read, the story line was the most believable. No gratuitous sex scene or romance, just a good book.

Malcom’s beating up the pervert

Great story. Thanks for letting skeeter be ok. Loved him in the Rose Gardner series.

Another Success!

Denise Grover Swank delivers another compelling protagonist. I love this new series that gives a nod to the Rose Gardner series with the reemergence of Skeeter Malcolm.
I really enjoyed this book!

Great sequel

I love Denise’s books and can’t wait to see what develops in this new series. I love that she brought James Malcom back and am curious to see how that comes along as well! Of course you can’t go wrong with Shannon as the actor!

team James forever

always loved James so glad we're getting to see what happened to him. Getting to know Harper was great too, she's got real depth to her character. I'm really excited to see her grow and watch all the relationships change as she does.
thank you for this story Denise! and an extra thank you for making the audio available, the narration was great!!
