Missing

Ex policeman Lewis Schofield's has been living a miserable existence since his elderly mother was murdered in her own home on a notorious housing estate, and his little daughter Charlotte who his mum was babysitting has disappeared. Over two years later there are still no sightings of Charlotte, and his marriage has collapsed under the strain. He leaves the marital home and moves back onto the estate in the hope that he will find some answers. During this time he befriends a young woman named Karen Burke, who has a little girl named Jewel who is around the same age as his missing daughter. As they become closer he learns about an incident that happened on the estate at around the same time that Charlotte went missing and he is convinced that her kidnapper is Tim Short a paedophile known to the police. The only problem is that he has failed to keep police updated on his address so the search is on to find him. Lewis believes that desperate measures are needed when Karen's daughter Jewel also goes missing, and it happens at a time when there has been a sighting in the area of the elusive paedophile. Worse is to come when Lewis realises that he has had the wrong man in his sights all along, because unfortunately he has already taken matters into his own hands. This is a rollercoaster of a story with startling twists and turns that are both unexpected and extremely shocking.
