To celebrate the release of “The Night She Disappeared” in paperback, we are giving away a copy to two of our readers.
Read on to find out what we thought of the book and for a chance to win a copy of your own:

About the book: The Night She Disappeared by Lisa Jewell
An unsolved mystery, family secrets, a boarding school for difficult teenagers, and an unidentified body. It can only be Lisa Jewell.
It’s nearly midnight and you’re home alone with only your baby grandson for company. Your daughter and her boyfriend have gone out to a party; the first time they’ve been out since their son was born. And now you are waiting for them to come home.
But they don’t.
The next morning, frantic, you ring your daughter’s friends, and you’re told that she was last seen heading to a party in an isolated village known as Dark Place …

Lisa Jewell: The Night She Disappeared Review – Our Thoughts
I’ve got to be honest, I’ve had a busy few weeks and have neglected my reading again (I have a pile of lovely books sitting waiting to be read). When “The Night She Disappeared” arrived, I couldn’t wait to get started and it didn’t disappoint.
The book begins with Kim babysitting her grandson, we learn a lot about her character early on and I warmed to her immediately. The following morning, worryingly, she realises that both her daughter, a teen-mum, and her boyfriend have not returned home after their night out. There are so many possibilities and “what ifs” when people are not where they should be and unfortunately as in the plight of real-life missing people cases, Kim won’t get any answers for a long time…
The story involves a number of different characters and switches between the year of the disappearance and the present day, but it’s written well and cleverly organised which helps keep us, the reader on track. Sometimes, I find books with too many characters confusing but thanks to Lisa Jewell’s vivid descriptions, I got to know the characters and the settings, from the boarding school to the house in the woods, well and was engrossed from the start to finish.
Kim has heartbreakingly settled into a new routine without her daughter, living with unanswered questions every day. Then Sophie arrives at the boarding school as the girlfriend of the new headmaster. She is the author of a detective series and is about to get embroiled in a real-life mystery when she spots a “Dig Here” sign in the woods…
Together, the two women get the case reopened and finally try to uncover the truth.
I devoured this book in a weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it – you will too!
