£4.99 99p
|

As a young boy, Wilde was found living alone in
the woods. With no memory of how he got there or
who he was, he was placed into foster care. Now thirty years on,
a former soldier and security expert, Wilde lives off the grid
and away from society – that is, until a child goes missing.
Criminal attorney Hester Crimstein asks Wilde to use his unique
skills to find the girl – but even he can find no trace of her.
Then, a human finger shows up in the post and it becomes clear
that Wilde must race against the clock to save the girl before
it’s too late…

A woman
walks into a police station with no phone and no ID, claiming

been dead for eight years. A day later, the woman vanishes. Now
the prime suspect in her disappearance, Raker must find out the
truth before the police close in. But if this is his wife, is he
losing his mind? And if it isn't, who is she?

Clever,
original and hugely gripping, this is a brilliant addition to Tim
Weaver's David Raker series. Featuring a protagonist you'll really root
for, You Were Gone
is an addictive thriller full of twists, turns and cliff-hangers, and
is perfect for fans of Jo Nesbo's Harry Hole books. We guarantee you'll
be desperate to read the rest of the series once you've turned the
final page.

they're forced to take shelter in the nearest seaside town and
the one deserted guesthouse available. After a disturbed night’s
sleep, Grace wakes to find a warning scrawled in the guest book: Leave now. Do not
trust them. With the storm
raging on, Grace is desperate to leave – but Charles remains
unaffected by the eerie stillness of the house. Is it her
imagination or do the owners, and Charles, have something to
hide?
