The Girl Who Was Taken by Charlie Donlea

'I need help,' she said.
They were the first words she'd spoken in days.
'Good God, the whole state's been looking for you . . . Where's your friend?'

Megan McDonald is a high school senior when she disappears from the small town of Emerson Bay. Miraculously, after two weeks held captive, she escapes from a bunker hidden deep in the woods.

Now, one year on, Megan is a national celebrity thanks to her bestselling book, Missing. It's an inspiring story - except for one inconvenient detail.

There was a second girl who was taken.
Her classmate Nicole Cutty.

Livia Cutty is a forensic pathologist. Every time a Jane Dow arrives in the morgue she wonders if it's her missing sister. However, it's the body of a young man, an apparent suicide, that finally offers the first clue to Nicole's fate. So Livia reaches out to Megan for help.

But Megan knows more than she's revealed. Flashes of memory are coming together - and they are pointing to something darker and more monstrous than anything her chilling memoir describes.

Two women - one the sister of a missing girl and the other a victim who escaped - come together to unmask a killer in this heart-stopping, unputdownable thriller from a sensational new voice in suspense fiction.
