'Hausmann is a force to be reckoned with' DAVID BALDACCI

She went missing decades ago.

He is still looking for her . . .

Julie Nowak has been missing since 7th September 2003. It broke her family. Only her father, Theo, doesn't give up on her. On the 20th anniversary of her disappearance, Theo is contacted by podcaster Liv. She's come across a new lead. But if Theo wants to find out the truth he must be quick before his progressing dementia smothers everything in darkness.

Who has taken his daughter? Why does Julie's ex-boyfriend Daniel keep his mother's bedroom door locked, years after she passed away? And is there anything more gruesome than the uncertainty of not knowing what happened to your own child?

Romy Hausmann returns with an exceptional new thriller that picks up straight where she left her fans with the international phenomenon that was Dear Child. Just when you think you know where the story is going, she turns it all upside down.
