It's been a long time since I've stayed up late to finish a book. When They Find Her is not only utterly gripping but also a sensitive and moving portrayal of parental love. Middleton's astute writing made me feel as though I was there was Naomi in her every moment of tension -- Neema Shah, author of <i>Kololo Hill</i> Utterly gripping . . . I could not put it down -- Fiona Scarlett, author of <i>Boys Don't Cry</i> A brave and suspenseful debut that had me turning pages deep into the early hours. Truly superb -- Katie Lowe, author of <i>The Furies</i> A tense and claustrophobic rollercoaster -- Nina Manning, author of <i>The Daughter in Law</i> Brilliantly written ... I felt every single emotion and was immediately swept up into the story. I'll be recommending it to everyone I know -- Sarah Pearse, author of <i>The Sanatorium</i> A twisty tale of parental love and a lie with terrible consequences. Dark, intense and so compelling that I read it in a single sitting -- Allie Reynolds, author of <i>Shiver</i> Uncomfortable and compelling - a story which is truly the stuff of nightmares. Couldn't put it down -- Catherine Cooper, <i>Sunday Times</i> bestselling author of <i>The Chalet</i> Superb debut thriller - assured, elegant and utterly gripping. EXCELLENT -- Will Dean, author of <i>The Last Thing to Burn</i>
