Summary: A busy and distracted mother leaves her baby in the car for a few minutes while she rushes into a shop for milk. The baby is kidnapped. The story is then told from various perspectives including the mother, the detective, and the kidnapper.
Thoughts: Believable, not gripping, but interesting enough to keep me reading whilst on a cruise. Short chapters meant I could dip in and out around other ship-board activities. She writes well, and having the story set in Australia makes it nicely relevant. Predictable happy ending, but otherwise, well worth reading.![]()
