Reported Missing by Diane Harding

Reported Missing is a real page turner, the action never stops. What starts as a nagging feeling of unease becomes a spiralling horror as the narrator and her husband try to keep their daughter and grandchildren safe.

The sense of being at a loss for what to do was moving: the protagonists are quiet, respectable people with no experience of domestic violence or dangerous psychopaths.

The Sydney setting is vividly portrayed, and it’s refreshing to read a thriller based in a city other than more frequently used UK and US cities.

A highly enjoyable read with an uneasy message.
