Where is he? Where’s my beloved child with his father’s blue eyes and a halo of golden curls? My little boy is out there on his own. Please keep him safe, I silently beg, please, please just keep him safe.


‘Your son is missing,’ they say, and life as I know it is over. ‘Where would he go?’ the police ask. ‘Where would he be?’ my daughter begs.

My heart races as images flash in my mind. The cabin we rent every autumn, surrounded by fiery red maple trees. Voices raised. Tears falling. A marriage falling apart. And worst of all my husband telling our child, Theo, to run.

The rest is a blank in my memory. If I close my eyes I can almost see it. A betrayal that has left me alone, in tatters, grieving for what we had.

It wasn’t meant to be like that. It should have been precious time as a family, with boardgames, walks in the mountain and pancakes for breakfast.

Instead my little one is has vanished. ‘They are looking for him,’ the nurse told me, ‘but the storm is slowing down the search.’

The police think Theo has the answers, that he knows what tore our family apart. But I have no idea where he is. No clue if he is safe. I won’t survive unless I bring him home. But if I do, and the truth comes out, will I survive that?

A completely gripping, beautifully written and totally heartbreaking page-turner, which examines what happens behind closed doors, and the secrets that can shatter a family. Fans of Jodi Picoult, Diane Chamberlain and Liane Moriarty will be totally addicted to this breathtaking novel.


 

Nicole Trope went to university to study Law but realised the error of her ways when she did very badly on her first law essay because, as her professor pointed out, ‘It’s not meant to be a story.’


She studied teaching instead and used her holidays to work on her writing career and complete a Masters’ degree. In between raising three children, working for her husband and renovating houses, she has published six novels. She lives in Sydney, Australia.

First, I want to thank Nicole Trope, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 


Ohh WOW!! Nicole Trope you pulled hard and I mean hard on my heartstrings with Bring Me Home!! This is one unforgettable book that will stay with you til after you finish it! It was very suspenseful, emotional, heartbreaking, and at times educational as well. 


Nicole did an amazing job painting a mental picture of the breathtaking autumn view in one of the first scenes. I could totally see myself spending some quality time there.


Bring him home introduces you to one of my favorite characters in the book that stole my heart! Theo an mute autistic little boy who witnessed something horrid no child should ever witness captured my heart. Nicole definitely did her research on Autism because it showed. I found his character incredibly fascinating.


Another character I really enjoyed was Jonah. He had a huge heart of gold and was there for Kaycee through thick and thin when nobody else was. Now there is a real man for you! 


I will admit that there was one beautiful scene that made me tear up with happy tears. 


This is one of Nicole’s best stories that I have read of hers. I would be really interested in a sequel to follow up with the family.
