This book had me up till the early hours of the morning!! Such suspense through out. Kate a detective has a new murder case that's is linked with a missing woman Lucy. Whilst in the woods is a cult group run by a Father and Son Graham and Oliver, something just isnt right about that Oliver....... A fast paced novel who will keep you gripped from.start to finish. A real must read for thriller seekers.

I thought the start of Nowhere to be Found moved a little quickly, I need to get a feel for a book and characters before the action happens! That’s probably a plus for lots of readers though!

I’ve read the first Kate Munro book, I loved it and this one is no different! Great writing, a strong plot and lots of suspense. Just what’s needed from a thriller! Definitely a few twists in here as well.

Just stop reading my review and get this book ordered, I promise you won’t regret it! :)

What connects a body in a lake, a missing woman and a survivalist group The Borderland Family? DS Kate Munro is determined to find out.

First of all, I like the characters of the police team especially Kate. She is very driven, hardworking and determined which puts her marriage to Sam in jeopardy, Sam’s feelings are well described and you do feel empathy but equally you understand that mid-investigation it’s hard for officers and a normal life. I think the inclusion of relationships makes the book feel authentic and I like the frisson of ‘something’ between Kate and PC Max Cooper. The plot is good, it’s well paced though it does dip a bit in the middle perhaps it’s a bit overlong??? However, the pace does pick up and the second half is really good. It’s a twisty read, the case is weird at times but it makes for interesting reading. The end is good and edge of your seat exciting.

Overall, a good, gripping police procedural that feels realistic. The survivalist group adds an intriguing dimension too. I definitely want to read more Kate Munro books!

I really enjoyed reading this book. The cover and title was the first thing to suck me in then the first read confirmed I wanted to read more!
Lucy and Sam are a couple who met at uni and everything seems ok in their lives but then cracks appear. Firstly Lucy’s love of swimming in a nearby lake unearth a body and that makes for her contact with the police and the DCI Kate Moran. I liked Kate’s character snd engaged with her more then Lucy in some points.
The next day Kate is made aware that a woman has gone missing, which turns out to be Lucy. Her husband Sam is worried about her but he also has things to hide.
The story flies back and forth between the two cases and how everything in intertwined, including Lucy’s friends.
I think the book ended the way I wanted it to! I will read more by this author as she was very good at involving so many characters and kept me turning the pages! .

This was a gripping read. There were a lot of of story lines, which were linked together very well. And although there was a lot going on, it was easy to follow – I never lost the plot! I read it in a couple of sittings, as I didn’t want to put it down.

The characters were mostly interesting, but I thought the main character Kate Munro was not too likeable. She was very self centred – it was all about her, her wants, her job. Everything else took second place – or third in the case of her husband! Not surprising she came home one day to find him gone! But she wasn’t too upset about that – she had already moved on to her next guy, who is also a work colleague.

I hope there are more books to follow featuring these characters, though. I am willing to give Kate a second chance!

The only fault I had was probably an editing problem – the author’s name and the title of the book kept appearing randomly in the middle of the text.

Nowhere to be Found follows DS Kate Munro as she investigates the disappearance of Lucy after she found the body of a man floating on a lake. Her husband Scott is the prime suspect but maybe there is more to it than meets the eye...

This book was completely unexpected and there were more than a few twists and turns. It is one of those stories that are difficult to talk about without giving away any spoilers so I will just say... when "that" happens, you will know and you won't be able to believe what you're reading! just wow.

Disclosure: I'd like to thank the publisher for my advanced reader copy. This is my honest review.

I would like to thank Netgalley and Orion Publishing Group for an advance copy of Nowhere to be Found, the second novel to feature DS Kate Munro, of the Hampshire Police.

Lucy Barker is swimming in a local lake when she finds a dead body. Two days later Lucy goes missing. Her husband, Scott, is hiding secrets and doesn’t seem overly concerned. DS Kate Munro is put in charge of both investigations in case there is a link.

I found Nowhere to be Found a bit of a mixed bag. It has all the ingredients to be a thumping good read, yet it didn’t hold my attention. This may be due to my mood, but I think it’s more to do with fact that I couldn’t connect with the characters and that meant that I couldn’t care about their fate.

The novel is told from various points of view so the reader gets a more rounded picture of events. It has some neat twists and some pulse pounding, tense moments, culminating in an action packed showdown. The plot is unusual and has some interesting observations about alternative lifestyles which I didn’t find overly convincing.

I can’t say that I liked any of the characters. Kate Munro is all about Kate, what she wants and needs. It doesn’t make her a very good police officer or wife, basically because she’s impulsive in meeting these needs. The Barkers are odd, I can’t say more than that without spoilers.

Nowhere to be Found is a solid read.

This is a DS Kate Munro crime/thriller and I found it captivating, I wanted to do nothing else other than race to the end to see how the plot finished out. A young woman called Lucy is missing and her husband, Scott, hasn’t a clue as to her whereabouts. But things aren’t adding up and soon it becomes apparent that Lucy may have had good reason to disappear. Plus, Lucy is tied to a case that Kate is overseeing – the missing woman is the same who reported a body floating in a late. But how are the investigations linked? It’s up to Kate and her team to find out. I loved the plot of the book plus the interactions between the police officers – it makes it seem more real and I’d absolutely watch this as a TV series.

A fantastic book which I recommend you add to your wish list today! This is the second book by Louisa I have read and I have not been disappointed by this, her latest release. This is NOT what you think it’s going to be at all, it goes off in a completely unexpected direction! An excellent story, loveable and detestable characters, a clever plot with twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat edge, a hold your breath ending then just another twist in case you thought it was over! Brilliant!
I rate this a strong 5⭐️ and highly recommend it.

This is an extremely clever and well written thriller with so many details and twists that it keeps the reader gripped all the way through,

Thank you to NetGalley and Orion Publishing Group for the arc Nowhere to be Found written by Louisa de Lange.

Thank you to Louisa de Lange for writing this second installment in the DS Kate Munro series.

The body has been found... but Lucy is now missing but her husband has no idea where she could be..
Rumors start to circulate around them, but the question is why is her husband being so strange and behaving in a strange way. Lucy goes out every night on a Tuesday night but she lies to her husband on where she is? but the reason is why...

DS Kate Munro gets called to a body being found in the lake, the body is of a man.. floating in the lake after being drown.. facts get revealed that Lucy was the one who found the body.. and she actually called the police to say she found a body.. now the biggest question of all are the two crimes connected and interlinked in anyway...? they need to find out before Lucy's time runs out...

The book had me gripped from the start i loved how it was written and all the twists of what happen right the way through the book, thank you Louisa de Lange for this

Definitely recommend- 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
Will review on amazon and other retail sites once published

I always say the sign of a great book for me is the speed at which I read it. I devoured this clever crime thriller in just one day. I could not put it down until I knew the ending.
The characters are strong and even without huge detailed character description pieces it is easy to feel a real connection to each character. I loved the inclusion of “The Family” (a cult like group of doomsdayers), it gave a really interesting and unpredictable element to the story.
Nowhere To Be Found combines interlocking storylines, each one adding more and more to the overall plot that come together in a heart wrenching ending which left my heart racing and taking a very deep breath.
This is an easy to read but intelligent book that I would highly recommend to lovers of crime fiction.

When a wife disappears, the husband is always the number one suspect. Lucy has disappeared and her husband, Scott seems worried and says he has no idea where he is. But DS Kate Munro discovers that her case involving a murdered man, also involved Lucy. Lucy was the one who found the man’s body in the lake. Could the two cases be connected? Or is Lucy’s disappearance because of something Scott did?

Interesting idea but I did find the cult a little unbelievable and some of the characters were not very sympathetic. I read the whole book, but I did find the end somewhat unbelievable. A little disappointing

Nowhere to be found
Louisa de Lange
A good story, includes several storylines that link well together. Feel it was slightly longer than it needed to be.
Written well and characters likeable. Loved the relationship between the 2 main police characters although would have liked a little more backstory to Kate’s past relationship. Loved Max’s character.

Some editing issues the title and author was randomly inserted into several sentences.

Good read! Overall 3 star as there is lots of competition in this area and it didn’t grip me as much as others.

Lucy is missing after finding a body. Her husband Scott is suspected of killing her, Kate is the DI leading the investigation into the body that Lucy found. Max Cooper is the sergeant investigating Lucy's disappearance. When the link is discovered Max is seconded to Kate's team much to her discomfort as they have some personal history. This story flows quite well and the characters are finely developed but for me it didn't have the wow factor.

A book of three parts, initially it seemed to be a quite straightforward murder case, even although the body had not yet been found. The twists in the story make for an interesting and suspenseful read and the suprises kept coming until the end. Some parts of the story could be expected, others were less predictable. All in all this made for a fast paced and believable crime story which leaves you with something to think about after finishing the book .Parts two and three are distinctive in their own ways and the divisions are necessary for the way the story is told.
I liked most of the characters. The description of "the family" was interesting and you are shown see how members became involved, their doubts, and those of the reader only gradually becoming apparent later in the story. It is written from the viewpoints of different characters, which can sometimes be distracting, but here added to the understanding of the story
Thank you to Net Galley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review. Definitely a good read if you like a good crime novel

This was a gripping read. The plot was interesting and held my interest. The characters were well realised and I'd look forward to reading more.

Great book.
Haven’t been able to put this one down. It has kept my attention and kept me guessing throughout.

Nail-biting terror. This kept me on the edge of my seat and I devoured it in one sitting in order to find out what happened. So many twists and turns. Really compelling.
