#1 International Bestseller THE FORGOTTEN GIRLS The body of an unidentified woman has been discovered in a remote forest. A large, unique scar on one side of her face should make the identification easy, but nobody has reported her missing. Louise Rick, the new commander of the Missing Persons Department, waits four long days before pulling off a risky move: releasing a photo of the victim to the media, jeopardizing the integrity of the investigation in hopes of finding anyone who knew her. The gamble pays off when a woman recognizes the victim as Lisemette, a child she cared for in the state mental institution many years ago. Lisemette was a "forgotten girl", abandoned by her family and left behind in the institution. But Louise soon discovers something even more disturbing: Lisemette had a twin, and both girls were issued death certificates more than thirty years ago. Louise's investigation takes a surprising when it brings her closer to her childhood home. And as she uncovers more crimes that were committed--and hidden--in the forest, she is forced to confront a terrible link to her own past that has been carefully concealed. Set against a moody and atmospheric landscape, THE FORGOTTEN GIRLS is twisty, suspenseful, emotionally intense novel that secures Sara Blaedel's place in the pantheon of great thriller writers.… (más)

Sinceramente non ho capito il senso di cominciare a tradurre in italiano una serie partendo dal settimo libro pur considerato che da qui inizia la parte che vede la protagonista, Louise Rick, a capo della nuova sezione investigativa “Persone scomparse”. Anche tenendo conto del fatto che si tratta di un lavoro nuovo, in un posto nuovo, con colleghi nuovi si perde tutto il passato della protagonista e non si riesce a capire bene quali eventi, chi e cosa del passato l’abbiano influenzata se non addirittura condizionata. In sostanza viene data per scontata una conoscenza approfondita del personaggio di cui, invece, non sappiamo nulla e tutto risulta piuttosto superficiale se non quasi incomprensibile e, ovviamente, oggetto di voli pindarici che chissà se hanno a che fare con la realtà del personaggio. Per il resto la storia si presenta intrigante e avvincente ma sconta questa partenza “ritardata” rispetto a una serie che all’estero è invece ben collaudata. ( )

Second book I've read by Blaedel. I don't know. She writes a good story leading up to the discovery, then it's just too easy. This one, the woman keeps her trap shut then just lets it all out short of drawing a diagram for Louise.

The sexual assault of Louise just didn't need to happen. Come on, please? There are much better ways to include that twist in Louise's past. Or at least do the character the honor of not poorly writing the reason for it into one big ol' cliche of dialog.

Louise and Eik... I liked Eik, but he's a drunk. If any woman with a lick of sense first met a man by dragging him out of a bar, she wouldn't want to sleep with him. Maybe if this happened in a later book with build up and development, it would have less meh. But you know what? An alcoholic can easily be written out by either screwing up or bowing out for rehab. So, I'm wondering if Blaedel will continue with this character or give him a "where is he now" bit in chapter 2.

Blaedel knows how to move a plot in pieces and bring it all together. I enjoyed most of this book, but the points above just killed it for me. ( )

A woman's body is found in the forest, but no one seems to know who she is. Louise Rick then discovers that the woman is already dead, or rather that she was a patient in a state mental institution and was declared dead 30 years ago. Now Louise and her colleague Eik must find out how a woman can be declared dead and then end up dead for real decades later.

Have you ever read something good, but at the same time revolting to read? You know the kind of engrossing book, but with a really really sick ending? This book is that kind of book. I started to read it yesterday, read it this night when my cat didn't want to sleep and kept me up and I finished it today. And, it was such a good book, a real page-turner.

Louise Rick is the new commander for the Missing Persons Department and I sometimes found her to have a bit of an attitude problem, but slowly pieces from her past reveled and that made it easier to understand her. Eik her new colleague annoyed Louise quite a lot in the beginning and I can understand that since she had to pick him up from a pub in the morning and he was a bit hungover not the best first impression, but they worked well together when she realized what a great cop he is. The case itself was interesting and as I mentioned quite disturbing. Besides the fact that they have the dead women mystery to figure out, a rapist is also attacking women in the woods where they found her. Louise also has to deal with memories from the past and her best friends problems with her upcoming wedding.

The book was really good and I want to read the previous six books in this series.

4.5 stars

It has been a while since I read the other books in this series. The writing is great. Not too much information, but enough so that you feel like you are there. Great ending ( )
