Avec son art consommé de la psychologie, Rachel Abbott tisse un suspense familial riche en émotions et hautement addictif, dans la lignée de P. D. James et de Lisa Gardner. Une route de campagne verglacée. Une voiture qui perd le contrôle : la conductrice est tuée sur le coup ; Natasha, sa fille de six ans assise à l'arrière, se volatilise sans explication. Quelques années plus tard, David fait de son mieux pour se reconstruire après le drame qui a emporté sa femme et sa fille. Il forme désormais un couple heureux avec la douce Emma et le petit Ollie, adorable bambin de dix-huit mois.
