She¡¯s loved by all who meet her. But someone wants her gone . . .
1990 When beautiful and vivacious Charlotte Salter fails to turn up to her husband Alec¡¯s 50th birthday party, her kids are worried, but Alec is not. As the days pass and there¡¯s still no word from Charlie, her daughter, Etty, and her sons, Niall, Paul and Ollie, all struggle to come to terms with her disappearance.
How can anyone just vanish without a trace? Left with no answers and in limbo, the Salter children try and go on with their lives, all the while thinking that their mother¡¯s killer is potentially very close to home.
Now After years away, Etty returns home to the small East Anglian village where she grew up to help move her father into a care home. Now in his eighties, Alec has dementia and often mistakes his daughter for her mother.? Etty is a changed woman from the trouble-free girl she was when Charlie was still around - all the Salter children have spent decades running and hiding from their mother¡¯s disappearance.
But when their childhood friends, Greg and Morgen Ackerley, decide to do a podcast about Charlotte¡¯s disappearance, it seems like the town¡¯s buried secrets ¨C and the Salters¡¯ ¨C might finally come to light.
After all this time, will they finally find out what really happened to Charlotte Salter?PRAISE FOR NICCI FRENCH:?
