The Missing

De: Daisy Pearce

Narrado por: Karen Cass, Rachael Beresford

A missing girl. A loving mother who never gave up. A betrayed wife who doesn’t know who to trust.

Teenager Edie Hudson was nobody’s little darling, which made vanishing all too easy. Two decades later, she’s been forgotten by everyone except her mother, Samantha.

And the person who knows what happened to her.

Samantha has had a long time to remember, and to regret. Having seen how little her daughter mattered to the community in the months following her disappearance, she wonders if Edie was lost before she was even gone. Or was it guilt, not indifference, that made the locals turn a blind eye? When she meets Frances, she at last starts to hope for answers.

Because Frances is obsessed with the mystery too, after finding a photo of her husband with the girl who disappeared.

What really happened all those years ago? And just how dangerous could it be to find out?

Excellent....

Extremely well written.., I heard no " mispronounciations" like the other reviewer complained. I enjoyed the not overly descriptive writing , the character development, and that air of menace. I'd rather have a little predictability than plot twists that are far fetched and silly. No the end is not a huge shocker for jaded thriller fans but the slow build up is an entertaining but sad journey.

Fantastic thriller!

full of suspense and twists and turns. i had goose bumps as the finally unfolded.

Loved story line was good but not surprising.

Story line was good but not surprising. Characters were interesting. A good read. all in all.

Story Good Narrator Not So Much

The story line was good and the only reason I stuck through it to the end. One of the Narrators was good but the other made it hard to listen to.

Fine but forgettable

Not really a review but I need to rant for a minute. I notice how many authors will describe people on their 50s/60s as grey, wrinkled, sickly, decrepit and mentally checked out. Every character who was just a generation beyond the people in their late 20s/early 30s are portrayed as elderly. It’s so strange and off putting.

Writing was okay, good narration

Similes, metaphors and adjectives galore (layered like colorful, tapestry rugs piled high at a open air market, with the sounds of vendors ringing in the air like plump crows roaming for scraps on a lonesome prairie). You get the idea; a bit distracting.

Oh My!

Such a great writer. A perfect narrator. The story won’t allow you to stop. I listened hours while inside because of a 97 degree day, when motivation to do anything was lacking. I would have given it 5 stars except for the ending. I wanted it to just finish, as it made me anxious, but that didn’t spoil my enjoyment of this book. I’m wondering if Daisy Pearce has written other books.

Great

This was a daily deal, by far the best dd I’ve listened to in the thriller genre. I would totally use a credit for this one.

The book was OK not one of my favored had Struggle

Struggled to finish the book .I think she is not my favorite sorry about that

I couldn't stop listening

this was a very gripping suspenseful thriller. all the strong characters in this book were female, another plus. I listened to this over the last 2 days, it was that compelling. highly recommend.
