THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP 3 BESTSELLER AND RICHARD & JUDY PICK

DAVID RAKER IS BACK WITH ANOTHER HEART-POUNDING MISSING PERSONS CASE

CCTV footage captures Cate and Aiden Gascoigne driving home seconds before their car plunges into a ravine and explodes.

When fire crews arrive, the vehicle is empty.

Cate and Aiden have vanished.

Missing persons investigator David Raker has solved too many impossible cases. He knows that behind every disappearance lies a dark tale waiting to be uncovered.

What he doesn't know is how dark this one is - or how close it will get to him . . .

'A fine addition to an excellent series' OBSERVER

Good enough!

The way this story unfolded from the start drew me into the mystery. It jumps around over a period of 30 years but despite this it is easy to follow. I liked the pace and the way it is read.

Clever story with a few twists and turns.

Brilliant story as I have come yo expect from Tim Weaver.
The only thing that let it down, was the other two narrators.
There wasn't any emotion behind their words, very flat.
The main narrator, brilliant as always.

Another Good Listen

twists and turns

As ever, a twisty turny tale of missing people, investigating, and major crimes. Some of Raker's contacts are somewhat unbelievable, such as his access to police records etc.

The narrators all did an excellent job 👏
