BESTSELLING PSYCHOLOGICAL SUSPENSE, AND A TOP RICHARD & JUDY SELECTION

She was fifteen, her mother's golden girl.
She had her whole life ahead of her.
And then, in the blink of an eye, Ellie was gone.

Ten years on, Laurel has never given up hope of finding Ellie. And then she meets a charming and charismatic stranger who sweeps her off her feet.

But what really takes her breath away is when she meets his nine-year-old daughter.

Because his daughter is the image of Ellie.

Now all those unanswered questions that have haunted Laurel come flooding back.

What really happened to Ellie? And who still has secrets to hide?

'Both utterly gripping and startlingly original. Prepare to be hooked.' SUN

A MISSING GIRL. A BURIED SECRET.

From the acclaimed author of I Found You and the Richard & Judy bestseller, The Girls, comes a compulsively twisty psychological thriller that will keep you gripped to the very last page.
Both utterly gripping and startlingly original. Prepare to be hooked.
I defy you to put this addictive book down until you reach the final heart-breaking page
What begins as a story about the mother of a missing girl starting a new relationship as she comes terms with her grief morphs into a gripping, disturbing and utterly fascinating tale about what really happened to young Ellie Mack. I've been a Lisa Jewell fan for a long time and in this book, as in all her others, she deftly weaves a compelling plot with an emotional depth that leaves you gasping. In Then She Was Gone she has created a book that is dark and claustrophobic but also heartfelt and moving. Then She Was Gone packs a huge emotional punch that will leave you winded. I loved it. (CL Taylor, author of The Escape, The Lie and The Missing)
A dark, compulsive psychological thriller, yet one which is also uplifting and tender. I absolutely loved Then She Was Gone. (Rachel Rhys, author of Dangerous Crossing 9733)
A tense clever page-tuner that everyone will be talking about. (Adele Parks)
She has departed from her usual chick lit and gone full tilt into a psycho thriller, but she’s lost none of her brilliance. Indeed, I think this is my favourite of hers so far… Deeply emotional and incredibly clever. Bravo
Unnerving, and with a juicy reveal, this is rightly a modern classic
Jewell builds a gripping novel around a maze of dark secrets, a tautly wound psychological thriller in which the suspense builds slowly. Her storytelling is immaculate, hopping between past and present, and in and out of characters. It’s a tough read at times, but Jewell always keeps everything moving. The intrigue never flags as she pushed towards a redemptive resolution. As astute and emotionally charged read, riddled with creepiness. Fully recommended
Smart and engrossing

It took quite a while to know where the story was going, but that was good. Missing a few details like a bit more on Floyd but I loved it all the same

The plot

All the characters were so believable and Ellie was so brave. A warning to us all to appreciate our children every single day.

Very moving story

I could not stop listening. Don't expect a feel good novel, kind of caring world in pastel shades. It is not. It is disturbing. Although Lisa Jewells always approaches awful happening with sensibility and human respect, this book could hurt sensitive souls, unless you really want to know. This is a thriller for more advanced readers, a well done one. I recommend it highly. But be prepared. Some sleepless nights are to come.

Absolute page-turner! Disturbing, though

… is something Lisa Jewell has no knowledge of. Throughout this story, whose plot is rather strange and a little far-fetched, characters act in a way that does not seem to be consistent. Floyd, for example, does nothing that I would call 'bad' in this story, but is in the end depicted as a kind of villain with a bad aura (ugh!). To my mind he acts rather honorably throughout the story (except for killing Noelle in a rage, but that is the one thing that is totally credible, I felt like killing her as well). Laurel is never depicted as a very good-looking, very desirable woman, but is in the end described as such. Both Laurel and Paul turn out to be quite well off, but at the start money problems are mentioned. All this is not consistent. The author seems to twist the characters so as to fit her improbable story. On the whole, not a success.

The art of creating round characters ...
