This was a thrilling page turner by Romy Hausmann that had elements of the book Room but took things to a brilliant level of suspense and profound observations. The mystery builds layers upon layers in this story about an abduction, murder, and parenting. Gorgeously written and executed.

I just couldn't get into this book, which surprised me since I LOVED "Dear Child"!
