Summary

Innocence is no protection against evil…

One early October afternoon, ten-year-old Jacob Rossi begins the short walk home from school. But he never makes it.

Days later, DCI Anna Tate is called to the scene of a burning building, where an awful discovery has been made. A body has been found, and the label in his school blazer reads: J. Rossi.

As Anna starts digging, she soon learns that a lot of people had grudges against the boy’s father. But would any of them go so far as to take his son?

And is the boy’s abductor closer than she thinks?

An absolutely gripping thriller for fans of Cara Hunter’s No Way Out and First Blood by Angela Marsons.

I have enjoyed this series I hope there is more to come. This continued story of Cloe and what happened to her is an added bonus to the thrilling story of the kidnapping. Enjoyed this 3 rd book immensely.

Great 3rd book in series

This whole series pulls at your heart strings and I just binge listened to them. I liked how they did the dual narration and you learned more about Chloe and her feelings - I dont know how my children would react at that age. The way the riots were described in such harrowing detail with the personal stories of the rioters so that you really felt for them. The feelings of the parents of the rioter that was killed again nearly brought me to tears.

Everything felt so nicely wrapped up at the ending

What an amazing series

I cannot say much without spoilers, suffice to say I found, while the premise was plausible, the over the top violence with certain characters was unnecessary and detracted from what could have been an excellent book.

Also, Anna’s voice seemed to change again! Different in each book or maybe it’s just my ears!

Apart from those issues it was a relatively decent listen.

I found this book rather traumatic, from the vividly depicted London riots (which I remember well) to the abduction of a ten-year-old boy. I felt like I had my heart in my mouth for most of the story—this isn't an easy read.

Compared with the last two books, this one is far more dramatic, which isn't necessarily a good thing. I struggled to believe that Anna and Chloe could drive through London and manage to steer clear of trouble when there was bedlam everywhere.

I also found Anna's choices hard to accept. Although her job is very important, if I hadn't seen my daughter in ten very long years, I would be damned if I'd leave her on her own—especially after my house had been targeted by rioters the day before.

It almost feels as though this one was written in the hope it might make it to the TV screen—I'm not sure.

Overall, it ended up feeling a bit too far-fetched for me, I'm afraid.

4/5

Hold on to your hat!
