Police are called, search parties go out, and Rachel, already insecure after her recent divorce, feels herself coming undone. As hours and then days pass without a sign of Ben, everyone who knew him is called into question, from Rachel’s newly married ex-husband to her mother-of-the-year sister. Inevitably, media attention focuses on Rachel too, and the public’s attitude toward her begins to shift from sympathy to suspicion.
As she desperately pieces together the threadbare clues, Rachel realizes that the greatest dangers may lie not in the anonymous strangers of every parent’s nightmares, but behind the familiar smiles of those she trusts the most.
Where is Ben? The clock is ticking...

My Review: This one was pretty interesting. Ive been reading a lot of thrillers lately and this one I picked up from the store. I liked the way the book unfolded but just couldn't connect with the characters for the most part. But, overall the story was still very good. I think I will check out more stories by this author in the future.
“This accomplished, intelligent debut should come with a warning--it’s completely addictive. A nail-biting, sleep-depriving, brilliant read.” (Saskia Sarginson, author of The Twins)
“Every parent’s nightmare, handled with intelligence and sensitivity, the novel is also deceptively clever. I found myself racing through to find out what happened.” (Rosamund Lupton, international bestselling author of Sister)
“Tightly focused and fast-paced. You won’t rest until you really know what happened.” (Lisa Ballantyne, author of The Guilty One)
“A nuanced, completely addictive debut.” (People)
“Heart-in-the-mouth excitement from the start of this electrifyingly good debut…an absolute firecracker of a thriller that convinces and captivates from the word go. A must read.” (Sunday Mirror)
“A mother and son spend an ordinary Sunday at a park near Londontown. Until the boy goes missing. Cue dramatic music. This read’s basically The Changeling meets an episode of Law and Order: Special Victims Unitbut set in the UK.” (The Skimm)
“What an amazing, gripping, beautifully written debut. WHAT SHE KNEW kept me up late into the night (and scared the life out of me).” (Liane Moriarty, New York Times bestselling author)
