What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

Jenny Shephard is twelve years old and missing.

Her teacher, Sarah Finch, knows better than most that the chances of finding her alive are diminishing every day.

As a little girl Sarah's older brother went out to play and never come home. The strain of not knowing what happened to him tore her family apart.

When Sarah finds Jenny's body, beaten and abandoned in the woods near her home, she is drawn into the heart of the investigation and a media storm.

Her presence at the scene arouses suspicions. But it is not just the police that are watching her...

The plot of this book is so good and keeps you interested and guessing all the way through. A beautifully written book. I would highly recommend. The only downside is the narration, sorry. Oh my good god I can't lie I struggled to keep listening. The narrator made every male character sound just truly awful and the female characters voices to be honest were not much better. It's a shame because the narrators own voice is lovely and when she spoke it was so good but as soon as she put on the voices for the other characters I cringed, yes it was that bad. For me it ruined the book but I absolutely loved the story.
