Summary

LOST.

When six-year-old Laurel Logan was abducted, the only witness was her younger sister. Faith's childhood was dominated by Laurel's disappearance - from her parents' broken marriage and the constant media attention to dealing with so-called friends who only ever wanted to talk about her sister.

FOUND.

Thirteen years later, a young woman is found in the garden of the Logans' old house, disorientated and clutching the teddy bear Laurel was last seen with. Laurel is home at last, safe and sound. Faith always dreamed of getting her sister back, without ever truly believing it would happen. But a disturbing series of events leaves Faith increasingly isolated and paranoid, and before long she begins to wonder if everything that's lost can be found again...

Critic reviews

Clarke excels at genuine page-turners with a heart of darkness and I read this in one greedy sitting.
A satsifying and...all-too-credible thriller
Undoubtedly one of the most exciting and talented YA writers in Britain
I wholly, unabashedly and completely recommend this book
Clarke...succeeds brilliantly, thanks to the reality of the characters and the depth of the emotion
Moving, thought provoking and utterly gripping from start to finish
Blending coming-of-age elements with psychological suspense, Clarke carefully weaves a story in which the unnerving truth is slowly unveiled. As with the best thrillers, the truth is far from a straight line, and what readers believe changes with every turn of the page. In this fast-paced and darkly entertaining novel, Clarke's true success lies is in crafting a realistic and haunting story of two young women who redefine what it means to be sisters.

This book was beautifully read and I enjoyed listening to Jane Collingwood’s voice. Although the climax to the book was a long time coming (I kept thinking something must happen soon) I could not put it down. It was not a surprise and to be honest it did not matter because it was just a confirmation to my thinking. Some of the ending I did not guess so there was still an element of surprise. At the end of the day I enjoyed the book

A long wait
