The Blurb

Apologies for the general email, but I desperately need your help.

My goddaughter, Coco Jackson, disappeared from her family's holiday home in Bournemouth on the night of Sunday/Monday August 29/30th, the bank holiday weekend just gone. Coco is three years old.


When identical twin Coco goes missing during a family celebration, there is a media frenzy. Her parents are rich and influential, as are the friends they were with at their holiday home by the sea.

But what really happened to Coco?

Over two intense weekends - the first when Coco goes missing and the second twelve years later at the funeral of her father - the darkest of secrets will gradually be revealed...


My Thoughts

An absolutely outstanding book from start to finish. With a great plot, that some may argue has parallels with the Maddie Mcann disappearance, this was well thought out, well written and full of twists which came from nowhere and had me wanting more. The Characters were a hateful bunch which is a great testament to the writing of Alex Marwood, Its not an easy thing to write a book full of characters that can give the reader such tempestuous feelings towards them.
The ending was just stunningly good. Not what I was expecting at all and I dont believe anyone who says they worked out the ending beforehand.
