About the book

When seven-year-old Alyssa is kidnapped, Deputy Noah Harper decides he will do what it takes to find her - but that means crossing lines he can never come back from.

Finding the girl safe isn't enough to stop Noah from losing his job, his wife, and from being kicked out of Acacia Pines. He's told if he ever returns, he'll be put in jail and left there to rot.

Now, 12 years later, comes a phone call.

Alyssa is missing again and her father wants him to honour the promise he made to her all those years earlier - that he would never let anything bad happen to her again.

To find her, Noah is going to have to head back to the pines, and come face to face with the past...

    Super spannend von Seite 1 an

    Warum war dieses Buch so lange, viel zu lange auf meinem SUB? 🙈 Es hatte mich von der ersten Seite an gepackt . Sehr spannend geschrieben , so dass ich durchweg wissen wollte, wie es weitergeht. Zwischenzeitlich geht es hart zur Sache und ich musste doch das ein oder andere Mal schlucken. Für Thriller Fans absolut empfehlenswert. 😊 Auch neuseeländische Autoren können Spannungsliteratur. 😄

    Man ist direkt in der Story, direkt in der Handlung. Schreibstil ansprechend. Ziemlich blutig alles, so blutig, dass ich mich durchaus frage wie man das alles überleben kann. Hab mich gut unterhalten gefühlt, auch wenn relativ klar war, wer der Böse ist. Das warum fand ich etwas an den Haaren herbeigezogen.
