In the tradition of Gillian Flynn, Tana French, and Ruth Rendell, this compelling and clever psychological thriller spins the harrowing tale of a mother's obsessive search for her missing daughter.

Jenny is a successful family doctor, the mother of three great teenagers, married to a celebrated neurosurgeon.

But when her youngest child, fifteen-year-old Naomi, doesn't come home after her school play, Jenny's seemingly ideal life begins to crumble. The authorities launch a nationwide search with no success. Naomi has vanished, and her family is broken.

As the months pass, the worst-case scenariosâ??kidnapping, murderâ??seem less plausible. The trail has gone cold. Yet for a desperate Jenny, the search has barely begun. More than a year after her daughter's disappearance, she's still digging for answersâ??and what she finds disturbs her. Everyone she's trusted, everyone she thought she knew, has been keeping secrets, especially Naomi. Piecing together the traces her daughter left behind, Jenny discovers a very different Naomi from the girl she thought she'd rai… (más)

I skimmed a lot of this book, but was very interesting in the sroty, until the end, which really sucked. So parents are working all the time, and the daughter is unhappy and hooks up with a gypsy older man and runs away to live with him. Her family thinks she has been abducted. Her life was not that sucky. How could she do that to her parents! What a truly awful person. What a waste of time. ( )

Worth reading but wasn't keen on how book was structured and didn't think much of the ending ( )

The Daughter by Jane Shemilt was much better than I expected. It was the first publication by a new author whose primary career is as a physician. I usually don't like books that jump back and forth between two times but Dr. Shemilt has pulled it off well. The book covers about 13 months in a family whose 15 year old daughter disappears. There are some surprises that I will not reveal. ( )

Very depressing, not what I expected from the teasers on the cover as 'suspenseful '. Would not recommend it. ( )

I received a copy of this book in a goodreads giveaway. I had a difficult time following this story the writing seemed choppy to me the back & forth in timelines from the night of Naomi's disappearance and Jenny at the cottage was confusing. I have read books that go back & forth before but usually at chapter breaks this book contained random back & forth moments I think that was the difference. ( )
