A twisty, shocking and addictive debut about a desperate mother and a terrible lie which spirals out of control.

Naomi always wanted to be a mother.

But a year ago, she made a dreadful mistake, and lost custody of her only child.

Now, her daughter has come to stay, and Naomi knows it's her one chance to re-build her family. But the night ends in a terrible accident. And Naomi tells a lie she can never take back-

She reports her daughter missing.

Within hours, her home is invaded. Journalists crowd the driveway. Police search the woods at the foot of the garden. Her ex-husband paces the hall.

And Naomi can't look away. Because the only thing worse than the lie she's told is the truth-

Naomi has no memory of what really happened that night...

Reviews for When They Find Her: An unputdownable thriller with a twist that will take your breath away

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>
