A BEST DEBUT OF 2024 BY BB

The instant Sunday Times bestseller


Yorkshire, 1979

Maggie Thatcher is prime minister, drainpipe jeans are in, and Miv is convinced that her dad wants to move their family Down South.

Because of the murders.

Leaving Yorkshire and her best friend Sharon simply isn't an option, no matter the dangers lurking round their way; or the strangeness at home that started the day Miv's mum stopped talking.
Perhaps if she could solve the case of the disappearing women, they could stay after all?

So, Miv and Sharon decide to make a list: a list of all the suspicious people and things down their street. People they know. People they don't.

But their search for the truth reveals more secrets in their neighbourhood, within their families - and between each other - than they ever thought possible.

What if the real mystery Miv needs to solve is the one that lies much closer to home?

Great narration

The characters are well drawn and they are brought to life by great narration. The ending was a disappointment on many levels but I can't go into details as not to give any spoilers. Also, the tying of the loose ends was a bit too neat and unrealistic. But of course a modern novel has to end on a super positive note regardless of how much it may hurt the credibility of the story.

Excellent acting - enjoyed the story from a different view

The actors were all excellent, compelling. I grew up in the same time so I liked the relevance and snippets of memorabilia! Great story.
