What to expect
'It's our son, Sam... someone took him. Please help us'
Emma hoped that she and her family would return from their year abroad closer, with memories to last a lifetime.
Instead, they returned minus one child.
A year on, Emma is haunted by the image of an empty cot, and feels further than ever from her husband.
Is their son still out there somewhere? Will the mystery about what happened that night ever be unravelled?
And, if the truth does come to light, will Emma's family be healed - or wrenched even further apart?
A chilling, gripping thriller from the author of the stunning Richard and Judy Book Club bestseller Daughter
