Then She Vanished A Completely Addictive and Unputdownable Crime Thriller
By Carla Kovach
First published 2025
It's dark as the young woman leaves work. Crossing the empty car park alone, she thinks about the warmth of her little house. But she doesn't make it home that night. Or ever again... Thirty years ago, Ruth Pritchard's sixteen-year-old daughter, Elissa, went missing. Police were called, neighbours were interviewed, and even Ruth's own husband was investigated, but the case went unsolved. Elissa disappeared forever. Now, Ruth watches the local news and hears about another girl gone from the same streets where her beloved daughter was last seen, and her heart races. A distinctive red scarf was found at a crime scene, and she recognises it instantly. It belonged to Elissa. After Ruth alerts the police, they rush to speak to her, but nobody answers the door. Her small home stands eerily quiet. Just like her daughter before her, Ruth has vanished into thin air. Friends say that Ruth suspected someone close to home took Elissa. Others say she never trusted her husband again after he was questioned by police. Did she finally discover the truth behind her daughter's disappearance?
