It’s every mother’s worst nightmare…

Kim arrives early at the school gates, bursting with excitement to see her daughter, Molly, after a week-long history trip. Shy and a little anxious, time away from her loving parents is a big deal for Molly – but the emoji-filled texts Kim’s been receiving all week prove her daughter has been having the time of her life. But when the bus pulls up, Molly’s seat is empty. Her teachers say she never went on the trip… 

As the search for Molly begins, distraught Kim feels like the police are dragging their feet and the school is acting a little too defensive. And with each precious day that passes, the secrets that bind Kim’s tight-knit community begin to unravel. Why isn’t Kim’s best friend by her side? And why is her husband acting so shady?

Nothing matters to Kim but bringing Molly home safe. With nowhere to turn and no one left to trust, only Kim can find her. And she’s running out of time…

A totally unputdownable psychological thriller that will keep you up all night reading. Perfect for anyone who loves Freida McFadden, Andrea Mara, and Jeneva Rose.

Molly Is Missing 

Written By Samantha Hayes

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Samantha Hayes, Bookouture, and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review. 

WOW!! I just realized it has been a hot minute since I have read any of Samantha Hayes books! I forgot what an incredible writer she was until I picked up her latest psychological thriller Molly is Missing. If you follow my reviews then you know how much I love missing person case books. This one I just couldn’t turn down. It looked good. Let me tell you it was soo good!! Once I started reading it I was hooked! I was up way past my bed time til the wee hours of the morning. I am now nursing a book hangover as I write this review and drink my much needed coffee. Ohh but it was so worth it to find out what really happened to Molly!!

Samantha Hayes totally hooked me within the first few lines of the prologue!! We the reader being a fly on the wall looking onto something that shouldn’t be happening. Wondering what is to happen next. Fearful for that person that was just written about. I had to read on!

Molly is Missing is every parents worst nightmare and thensome!!!! Picture this when you think your daughter is on an overseas school trip but there is no sign of her! Nobody has heard from her at school! Where is she?

There was a scene in the book that detailed how Molly was feeling. My heart went out to her and was praying that it was her chance of freedom. 

In Molly is Missing there are so many deep dark secrets with mind blowing revelations! After reading this book you will want to hold your child a little tighter. Plus, you may want to make sure they get to their destination safely.

One Missing Girl by Kristi Belcamino

THREE COUPLES. THREE DAUGHTERS. ONE MISSING GIRL.

My husband and I are hosting a party this evening — just for the

adults. Our daughters are all leaving for college. We’ve raised them

together , watched them grow up together , and now we’re drinking

champagne beneath the fairy lights, pretending we’re ready to let them

go.

Kate is mine. Brilliant. Funny . The kind of girl who lights up every room

she walks into.

Lily has been her best friend since kindergarten. Shy , anxious, always

half a step behind her .

And finally there’s Julia. Beautiful, loyal — and fearless.

I never thought I’d get a life like this. Not with a past like mine. But here

I am, with a husband who adores me and friends who’ve become

family . We drink, we dance. I go to bed happy .

By morning one of the girls is missing.

Mine.

I thought I knew these people. My husband. My oldest friends. Their

daughters.Someone among us is lying about that night. But they’ve made a

terrible mistake. They don’t know what I’m capable of. Not yet.

One Missing Girl

Written By Kristi Belcamino

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews

First, I want to thank Kristi Belcamino, Joffe Books and Zooloo Book Tours for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.

Dang! Kristi Belcamino wrote a wickedly twisted thought outside of the box storyline in One Missing Girl. It is so incredibly different from anything out there. It is a breath of fresh air. It was addictive, fast paced, suspenseful, full of secrets, and so much more. 

Loved how Kristi says how she writes the way Stephen King does-what scares him!! Interesting to find out that she was a newspaper crime beat reporter and the scary things that kept her up all night landed in her books. 

As the title suggests One Missing Girl is just that! Kate is missing and her parents are frantically looking for answers to where she could be.      

To me I thought the boyfriend seemed like a very shady character and wondered if he had anything to do with her disappearance.      

The Mom seemed like she had a troubled past as well with her family. We get a glimpse of this as her backstory is told as well.

Call the Magic Man and he appears. Tell anyone about him and he disappears.

It started as a whisper, a story bored kids in this small town told on the playground to spook each other. Then they began drawing pictures of the Magic Man on their walls at night – each one of them startlingly similar. It was all a harmless myth until the first body was found…

Trudie knows she and her little boy, Dexter, are safe here, away from her ex and far from her troubles with a colleague at the hospital where she works. But it doesn’t stop her double-locking her doors at night. You can never be too careful.

Then Dexter starts playing up – stealing food, getting into trouble at school and drawing on the freshly painted walls of his bedroom. His explanation shakes Trudie to her core: the Magic Man told me to.

Tucking him into bed at night, Trudie prays that it’s just a phase, that he’s acting out to make friends. But just days later, her worst nightmare comes true – Dexter is missing…

Fans of Rachel Abbott, Angela Marsons and Karin Slaughter will be totally gripped by this jaw-dropping and completely spine-tingling crime thriller from bestselling author Carla Kovach.

Ivy snaked over the remains of the ancient building; growing up everything it could possibly cling to. Everything except the freshly dug grave and the woman’s partially covered face, her gold locket glinting in the sun…

When hikers discover the remains of a young woman at an abandoned asylum in the heart of the Lake District, Detective Morgan Brookes is first to the scene. Hidden from view, amongst moss and dark green ivy, a woman has been partially buried. But it’s not the knife in her chest that shocks Morgan to her core; the girl’s tied legs bring back memories of someone from her own gruesome past – her brother Dan.

Dan is in prison for murder, and Morgan is quick to convince herself that the rope that reminds her of him is just a coincidence. And when her boss identifies the body of the victim as seventeen-year-old Samira Silva, Morgan throws everything at the case, desperate to find justice for a fellow foster child. With the team hunting through Samira’s old case files, and the kidnap of another girl causing chaos at the station, she has no time to spare.

Until she unearths a chilling connection between Dan and Samira. And she’s forced to face him, stepping foot through the doors of his prison for the first time in her life.

Morgan thought she put her own dark past behind her years ago, but has she instead put the lives of others in danger? And is it already too late to face Dan, and stop him for good?

A gripping crime thriller from million-copy bestseller Helen Phifer. Fans of Karin Slaughter, Val McDermid and Robert Dugoni will devour the non-stop twists.

The Other Daughter 

by Heidi Field

Two brothers. Two daughters. One deadly legacy.

Every family has secrets. Some are worth killing for.

Shiv has spent years trying to leave Peasedale behind. With Mason Tucker finally free from prison and her son, Pip, growing into a happy young boy, the future feels brighter than it has in a long time. Then Hunter Piper appears.For decades, the Piper name has been synonymous with tragedy, violence and loss. Now Hunter has come back to claim what he believes is his, bringing with him a daughter no one knew existed. Jeanie.

As old wounds reopen and long-buried secrets begin to surface, Shiv finds herself drawn into a deadly conflict rooted in the darkest chapter of her family's history.

When Pip vanishes, the race to find him leads back to the place where

it all began—the shack in the woods. But some truths should never be uncovered.

And some daughters inherit far more than their father's name.

The Other Daughter

Written By Heidi Field

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Review

First, I want to thank Heidi Field, Yellow Books and Zooloo Book Tours for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review. 

Fans of Heidi Field’s series The Peasdale Woods Killer you are in for a real treat because guess what?! She is back with her fourth book The Other Daughter and OMG each book keeps continuing to blow my mind. It is just as dark, twisted, mysterious, detailed, and addicting as the prior books were. 

I will be blunt there were only two psychological thrillers authors this year that totally captivated my attention fully, one being Heidi Field and Rhiannon Barnsley. Whenever I am asked to recommend a new psychological thriller author or new book Heidi is the first one I think of. Just thinking back to her first novel in the series she has grown so much as a writer. 

The one thing I found different in this book than past books is she didn’t have a prologue. She skipped that part and jumped right into the storyline. 

Lee Hyat did a great job on Heidi’s cover for The Other Daughter. It was so different and unique compared to the other covers she had in the past. 

The Other Daughter as I stated is the 4th book in the series and I highly suggest it be read in order. Yes, Heidi does a mini recap and updates us of where the characters are now. However, I feel strongly that these books should not be read as a standalone. I think someone would be totally lost without the backstory of all the characters. That decision is up to you but that is my advice. 

There were some jaw dropping updates on one character specifically that left me speechless!!! I was thankful for the outcome but I didn't see that coming at all. 

This book we learn all about Hunter who was Gunner’s Brother and Jeanie who is Hunter’s daughter. I would have been in total shock just like Shiv was when he showed up unannounced claiming to be family!! 

Seriously when you learn the dark twisted childhood Gunner had you realize why he might have been the man he was in stories we read about him. It just makes perfect sense but it doesn’t justify it. 

There is so much I want to share but I don't want to give anything away! All I will say is this is a must read book!! 5 stars!! Like I have been saying from book one this needs to be a Netflix series!! I would totally binge read it!!
