Summary
In this thrilling standalone novel from the internationally bestselling author of the Frieda Klein series, a woman’s frantic search for her missing daughter unveils a nefarious web of secrets and lies.

Nina Landry awakens on her fortieth birthday, anticipating a day filled with excitement. She, her new boyfriend, and her two children are taking a trip—leaving their home on Sandling Island, off the coast of England, for a dream vacation. As soon as her fifteen-year-old daughter, Charlie, returns from a sleepover, they can get ready to leave.

But Charlie doesn’t come home at the expected time. Nina can’t believe of all days, Charlie has chosen this day to be late. As minutes and then hours tick by, Nina’s annoyance soon changes to concern, and then to a chilling certainty that something terrible has happened.

The police insist there’s no reason to worry—yet. Teenagers are unreliable, impulsive. Nina always thought she and Charlie had a solid, trusting relationship, but seeking out Charlie’s friends for clues to her whereabouts makes her reconsider. How well does Nina know her daughter, really? How well can a parent ever know a child? And will everything Nina doesn’t know—about Charlie, her neighbors, even the friends and family closest to them—prove fatal…?

Losing You once again proves that Nicci French is at the height of their storytelling powers in a clever, mind-bending thriller that has readers guessing at every twist and turn.
Reviews

Story line was initially good but left so many unanswered questions like motive and why some characters were even in the story... Like the new bf who was never even on the scene and was completely unnecessary. At the end there was no explanation as to why any of it occurred but literally hours had been spent describing minute details like scenery and the main character thoughts. Narration of main char was very good, excellent fiction.... but almost every other char sounded like a whiney pathetic chump, whether male or female. I feel like I wasted too much time listening to have no clear picture in the end as to the why!! It's like the author ran out of ideas but wanted to relay thousands of details they'd been storing up.
