INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLERA brilliantly plotted psychological crime novel about a missing child and the scandal that erupts in the aftermath with a shocking twistThey know who did it. Perhaps not consciously. Perhaps not yet. But they know. When eight-year-old Daisy Mason vanishes from her family’s Oxford home during a costume party, Detective Inspector Adam Fawley knows that nine times out of ten, the offender is someone close to home. And Daisy’s family is certainly strange—her mother is obsessed with keeping up appearances, while her father is cold and defensive under questioning. And then there’s Daisy’s little brother, so withdrawn and uncommunicative . . . DI Fawley works against the clock to find any trace of the little girl, but it’s as if she disappeared into thin air—no one saw anything; no one knows anything. But everyone has an opinion, and everyone, it seems, has a secret to conceal.With a story that feels all too real, Close to Home is the best kind of suspense—the kind that sends chills down your spine and keeps you up late at night, thrilled and terrified.

"That epilogue changed everything. This book had me guessing at least 4 different people were at the center of this disappearance, but NEVER was that a path I even considered. This was good, not because any of the characters outside the family were well developed, but because it just kept you wanting me, continually making you second guess your theory. "
"If you’re looking for something that twists with every turn of the page then I suggest this #mystery_and_detective read by Cara Hunter. All of her books are fantastic! "
