She sleeps, a pale girl in a white room . . . Driving home one night, stuck behind a rusty old car, Gabe sees a little girl's face appear in the rear window. She mouths one word- 'Daddy.' It's his five-year-old daughter, Izzy. He never sees her again. Three years later, Gabe spends his days and nights travelling up and down the motorway, searching for the car that took his daughter, refusing to give up hope, even though most people believe that Izzy is dead. Fran and her daughter, Alice, also put in a lot of miles on the motorway. Not searching. But running. Trying to keep one step ahead of the people who want to hurt them. Because Fran knows the truth. She knows what really happened to Gabe's daughter. She knows who is responsible. And she knows what they will do if they ever catch up with her and Alice . . .

On reflection and balance, this is another winner from Tudor with the same rich narrative and creepy undertone. I didn't enjoy it quite like I did her previous books and found myself drifting off at points. I didn't feel much of a connection with the characters until the latter part of the story, which is a shame. But the pace did pick up and I ultimately enjoyed how things came together.

Overall this thriller was underwhelming. I was intrigued and hooked in the beginning but it was very slow paced in the middle. I wasn't really thrilled with the ending but I think it could have been a lot worse of a twist. At some parts I was also a bit confusing with the different storylines but they connected quite well. The “is it supernatural or not” aspect was really intriguing in the beginning. I listened to the audiobook and it was mediocre.

This thriller was a fine one but it is very forgettable in my opinion and I doubt I'll remember the twist in a couple of weeks from now.

The beginning of the story started strong and kept me intrigued but it lost steam towards the middle. The supernatural element wasn't really necessary. It actually made the ending seem a touch hokey.
