Summary
As a young and newly qualified detective, Superintendent Signe Brask is put on the case of 10-year-old Mille who has disappeared without a trace during a family trip. Despite a vigorous search, the girl is never found. Ten years later, a young woman shows up in Copenhagen claiming to be Mille. The family welcomes her home, but where has she been for 10 years? When Signe goes to close the case, she makes some unexpected discoveries. And that's exactly when the family is hit by a new tragedy....

To call the 20 year old woman girl is so off-putting. To make one believe that the police would deliver a woman as the missing girl without first checking for facts is just too far removed from reality for me to enjoy.

Gripping story, didn’t want to stop listening.

Profile Avatar Benny G. Dec 2022

The story was interesting even though it was very emotional, so beware if you listen to it. I enjoyed it but in some sense was predictable.

Not a fan of LGBTetc love stories, but otherwise the plot was good. The narrator was great!

Profile Avatar Razorette Mar 2023

Good mystery. Ending was a little predictable.

Profile Avatar Mark Pout Dec 2022

Profile Avatar Rachel K. Dec 2022

Very good book

Profile Avatar Anonymous May 2025

Very quickly pulled me into the mystery. I liked it and finished it quite quickly.

The key female police officer and key character was so annoying. I am tired of celebrating rogue police officers who are smarter than everyone else. Her initial lack of real police procedure was the caused for the problems. There is no police force in the world who would return an adult lost for 10 years without a DNA test before returning them to the parents. That is just guessing, not police work. Of course if she followed proper procedure she would not have found the pedophile in their midst. It is so mundane a plot. I didn't even finish listening to it because it was annoying and predictable.

Profile Avatar Nic W. Feb 2025

Too obvious and hence too drawn out. Rather unrealistic.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Jan 2025

Good story, interesting and emotionally hard hitting. Lone Theils writes well! Minus for the classical "summing up of case through monologue" (in this case a letter) at the end. Good narrator just a bit grating with the names of people and places that were sometimes pronounced okay but a lot of the time really off (which will only bother you if you're a Scandinavian listener).

Predictable but enjoyable.

Profile Avatar Patricia S. Jan 2024

This book was great! Narrator was excellent and I didn’t get much housework done. Lol

Profile Avatar Marie P. Aug 2023

Fun book as it kept moving. I thought I'd figured it out! Nope. Good cliffhanger for #3

Profile Avatar Molly G. Aug 2023

Good book. Good read. Ends different than you would expect from first part of story. Probably not for everyone, it is exploitative and unfortunately true to life.

Profile Avatar Umka May 2023

Thoroughly enjoyed this book, couldn’t stop listening and have already got the second book in the series. The ending was a little predictable but it didn’t spoil the book.

Profile Avatar Flora Zobl Feb 2023

Gripping story and completely unforeseeable ending! Very good!

Profile Avatar Charliesneeze Feb 2023

This is a fantastic read, I was hooked early in and was excited to find out what would unfold next. I keep recommending it to friends!

Profile Avatar Michelle H. Jan 2023

Loved the book. So many twists and turns - and they were done so well! Please bring more books from this author!

Profile Avatar Kerry Jan 2023

Loved the twists and turns of this addictive story! Would recommend!

Terrific story. Sometimes I couldn’t stop listening ‼️

Profile Avatar Yunila E. Jan 2023

The story was quite suspenseful, and the narrator did a great job keeping me engaged.

Profile Avatar Mary E. Jan 2023

I really liked it! I couldn’t stop listening. I thought I figured it out early on but was mistaken. It had some good twists and turns.

Profile Avatar Sandra Ann Birch Dec 2022

The narration was very good, the story was easy to listen to but a bit too obvious with the detective being very slow to reach conclusions.

Profile Avatar Anonymous Dec 2022

Enjoyed the read so much I went to my next book by the same author.

Profile Avatar Nancy E. Dec 2022

It started off a bit slow but wow did it heat up! It’s a bit uncomfortable at times but I guessed the ending early on. Overall it’s fine, not great.

Profile Avatar Jeffrey M. Dec 2022

The book was too dark for me. Sometimes the Chief of Police was too much on the negative, pushing a frustration onto the reader. The narrator was very good. She made the book.
