When You Looked Away

THE NEW DI STRATTON THRILLER FROM THE HIGHLY ACCLAIMED AUTHOR OF BELIEVE

It's every mother's worst nightmare.
Your son is gone.
 And everyone's a suspect…  

Laura is ready to start a new chapter.   

Between her messy divorce with her ex-husband, and moving in with her new fiancé, her son Benjy and her successful writing career have been her only constants.  

Until that fateful day. The afternoon starts like any other. Laura collects Benjy from school, then heads upstairs to write.  

It's not until the sun is setting that she realises the house is quiet. Too quiet.  

It's not until she sees the footprints in the garden that she knows something is terribly wrong.  

One set is undeniably Benjy's. It's the other set that strikes fear in her heart - those of an adult.  

Someone who took her son, right from under her nose…  

DI Stratton is called to investigate. She must trust no one - and suspect everyone. Even Laura.  

After all, doesn't her latest story follow a boy the same age as Benjy? One that takes a devastating turn...
