Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this book - I really enjoyed this one!
The story is based in Britain and centers around the search for a missing young woman, Edith. The case falls to Detective Sergeant Manon Bradshaw and her team of investigators to solve. The story is written in short chapters with points of view from Manon, Davy (another investigator), Miriam (Edith's mom), and Edith's friend. In this way, we learn the backgrounds of these characters.
The investigative world seems very real - politics, budget and press issues - and you really get a feel for how an investigation comes about. And how involved the investigators become in their case.
There were lots of interesting story lines - Manon's exploring of the internet dating world, for example, offered some laughs in between the investigation.
I believe this is going to be the start of a new series - if so, I can't wait for it! I really liked these characters and can't wait to read more about them.
