About this listen
Winner, Earphones Award 2020
Five long-missing children are about to be returned.
It was summer in the mountains when five small children vanished from their nursery school picnic. The heat was stifling that day, the tinkle of an ice-cream van in the air....
Three-and-a-half years later, in the dead of winter, the children are returned to their families...one by one.
All except for Ivy - the granddaughter of Homicide Detective Kate Wakeland. The other four children say Ivy is dead.
Speculation grows that the mysterious abductor is enacting a cruel revenge plot due to a murderer that Kate put in jail years before.
Kate isn't sure what to believe. But one thing is certain - she's about to begin the battle of her life. When the children were first stolen, she was prevented from investigating the case.
But now, Kate will be relentless in uncovering the identity of the abductor and discovering what happened to Ivy.

Great series
I’ve read some of Anni Taylor’s stand-alone novels and really enjoyed them so decided to try the detective series. I do love a series and this is ranking up there, as soon as I’ve finished this review I’m off to buy the next two in the series

Interesting listen
An interesting story. The plot was a bit unrealistic, but it’s a story after all.

Loved this book!
I loved this book. The story kept you guessing right to the end. The story is also told with warmth and the characters are likeable. I've loved all of Anni Taylors books, she is a great storyteller.

Brilliant author
I discovered Anni a few weeks ago and have listened to all the books she has on audible.
In total I’ve listened to almost one thousand books on audible mostly in the crime and post apocalyptic genres. Anni is one of the best authors I’ve ever encountered. Her books are engaging, exciting and full of twists and unexpected turns. The character development is brilliant and the stories are so creative. I don’t know how someone can have such a creative mind and an ability to write at this level.

Addictive listening
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Caroline Lee’s narration was brilliant as ever and one of the reasons I bought the first book in the series. I now have books 2 and 3 to look forward to. Well plotted - I never guessed the identity of the kidnapper - and the relationships between Kate and her colleagues and family were all credible. I look forward to hearing Kate solve more crimes with her dogged persistence to track down every potential lead.

Thoroughly enjoyed it!
A decent book, I was hooked. I did get a little confused at one point with all the characters but I think that may have just been a “me” thing. Definitely worth a listen
