Check out the full review at Kritters Ramblings
There are a few little girls who are lost in this book and a young woman who lost her childhood and must realize the details behind what happened in the past. As a detective Lucy Black returns home to care for her father and continue her career, but just as she gets in town a little girl is found in the woods and has an odd connection to another girl who is the daughter of a wealthy businessman and who is missing.
I loved the parallels of DS Black learning about her past in her hometown as she investigates the girl found in the woods, it was thankfully obvious that DS Black didn't have an easy childhood and because of her past she can help these girls. It was so interesting watching her piece together both the events of the present and the past. There was an interesting twist in the end that was satisfying and sad at the same time, I wouldn't change it, but it made me stop and think about the rest of the book.
