The Missing Ones by Edwin Hill
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow! I loved the first book–Little Comfort–and had been waiting for the next in the story of Hester Thursby. The Missing Ones exceeded my expectations, and I couldn’t put it down. Hester Thursby, the diminutive librarian with a side gig in finding people, is dealing with PTSD after her last case, and can’t let her niece Kate out of her sight–even to go to preschool. Hester is drawn to Finisterre Island where drugs are causing trouble and 4-year-old children seem prone to disappearing, and must confront her greatest fears in order to move forward with her life. Terrific books and characters–you may not always like Hester, but she is believably written–that are worth your time.
I received a digital ARC via Netgalley.
