Damn this was such a good book it was so addictive I just couldn’t put it down and flew through it mainly as I ignored other things I should do and just made time to read !!
I think what made this book stand apart from other police procedurals was the brilliant combination of the two main characters of Beth Winter and Lucas Black and well what can I say we surely need to see more of these two in future books because what a dream team they are, so well written making them both feel very “real.”
So Alice Teale is missing and this begins a story that is full of suspense, twists and wow some strange and secretive people with all of them seeming to have one heck of a lot to hide and I was gripped right from the start. The book progresses at a fair old pace getting more and more interesting and with a very satisfying conclusion making it a very enjoyable read.
So for me this is a definite 5 star novel and I can highly recommend it and let’s keep our fingers crossed to hear more from Black and Winter from the fabulous pen or fingers of Howard Linskey.
My thanks to NetGalley and Penguin UK-Michael Joseph for giving me the chance to read the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

I read Alice Teale is missing in four hours, I was unable to put it down! I loved the North East setting and the gritty characters. Although it has a dark storyline it’s execution is fantastic and I highly recommend adding this to your reading list!
Penguin books always publishes the best books so really happy I got to read this. Thank you! :)

Acting DI Lucas Black and DC Beth Winter are tasked with solving the disappearance on 17 year old Alice Teale.
Alice a popular well-liked teenager walked out of school on one bright spring day and was never seen again.
When the investigations begins its clear to see that not everything is as it seems and everyone has secrets.
I loved the relationships between Black and Winter and the extracts of Alice's diary really added to the story.
An addictive read that I couldn't put down full of suspense, please say there's more on the way!
