About this listen

I race across the fields in the gathering dusk. “Claire!” I cry, hearing my voice echo. “Claire!”

Every October, the school where I work takes a trip to a local farm to pet the animals and search for the perfect Halloween pumpkin. This year is even more special, as my daughter, Claire, is coming. She’s so excited, and we really need some fun time together after what we’ve been through.

But the day turns dark when one of the children goes missing. I leave Claire safe with another teacher to join the search, desperately scouring the fields and playgrounds. When at last we find little Katy, lost in the corn maze, I am lightheaded with relief.

I return to the rest of the group to hug my daughter tight. But Claire is nowhere to be seen.

Whoever took her waited till I was distracted. Whoever took her must be someone I know.

But who could want to punish me this badly? Is it linked to the night I refuse to think about, the night my husband died?

I’ll do anything to get my daughter back. But if the truth comes out, I might already have lost her....

A brilliantly twisty thriller that will have you gripped. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware, and Lisa Jewell.

Had the potential to be good but went on way too long, especially at the beginning and not a lot really happened.

Ok but nothing special

Dragged out storyline, irritating narrator, and now I hate the name Claire!!! The end Thankyou

Not the best

I read a lot and I don’t say this lightly but I really regret wasting a credit on this. I didn’t finish listening. The main character is so self absorbed that it takes over the actual issue of a missing child. There’s nothing to it. Don’t waste your credit or your time.

Just awful
