Summary

Gone Astray is a tense psychological thriller from debut novelist Michelle Davies.

When Lesley Kinnock buys a lottery ticket on a whim, it changes her life more than she could have imagined....

Lesley and her husband, Mack, are the sudden winners of a £15 million EuroMillions jackpot. They move with their 15-year-old daughter, Rosie, to an exclusive gated estate in Buckinghamshire, leaving behind their ordinary lives - and friends - as they are catapulted into wealth beyond their wildest dreams.

But it soon turns into their darkest nightmare when, one beautiful spring afternoon, Lesley returns to their house to find it empty: their daughter, Rosie, is gone.

DC Maggie Neville is assigned to be Family Liaison Officer to Lesley and Mack, supporting them while quietly trying to investigate the family. And she has a crisis threatening her own life - a secret from the past that could shatter everything she's worked so hard to build.

As Lesley and Maggie desperately try to find Rosie, their fates hurtle together on a collision course that threatens to end in tragedy....

Gripping

What did you like most about Gone Astray?

It was a gripping story from the start and kept you guessing who the villian was right to the end.

Have you listened to any of Clare Wille’s other performances? How does this one compare?

The first one I have read. I immediately bought the follow up.

Brilliant book

Really enjoyed this book. This book was a really good Audio book and the narrator was brilliant too, her characters voices were easily recognised which added enjoyment. The detectives are becoming characters, I enjoy meeting again. Next book please.
