Product Information

By the time you get to the next stop, you’ve convinced yourself that everything will be fine. But you soon start to panic, because there aren’t two children waiting for you on the platform. There’s only one. El tema en sí no es novedoso: la desaparición de un menor, pero sí la manera de estructurar la historia y crear una trama estable e inteligente. El inicio es algo lento para mi gusto, pero entiendo que es la presentación de los personajes y su desarrollo emocional en la trama. A partir de la segunda parte es imposible soltar el libro y en la tercera, mejor tener tiempo porque querréis leerla del tirón. You stand on a crowded tube platform in London. Your two little girls jump on the train ahead of you. As you try to join them, the doors slide shut and the train moves away, leaving you behind. Es difícil explicarlo sin hacer ningún spoiler. Digamos que no me ha convencido que se considerase el secuestro del niño como la única vía para solucionar todo el lío. La autora nos explica las razones y no digo que no tengan su lógica. También digo, que siempre que un escritor necesita explicar algo así, es porque entiende, que ese es el punto más débil y cuestionable de la trama. En este caso, los motivos que nos ofrece me habrían parecido más plausibles si el secuestro hubiera sido el resultado de un impulso. Al no ser este el caso y con semejante premeditación, me cuesta creer que los autores ni siquiera considerasen la otra opción que tenían, más sencilla y viable. By the time you get to the next stop, you've convinced yourself that everything will be fine. But you soon start to panic, because there aren't two children waiting for you on the platform. There's only one.

The Irvines, who are quite well off await a ransom demand that never comes and Marissa’s anguish is palpable. Jenny is feeling guilty as it is her nanny who is to blame and the local gossip mongers are vicious in their assessment that Jenny didn’t do her due diligence in choosing this nanny even though she did. Jenny does what she can to help the Irvines to assuage her feelings of guilt but there is no progress. In London, over from Dublin, to visit successful barrister Aaron's University friends, Sive, his wife, and their three children are about to board an underground train when Sive is separated from her two girls. Andrea, with her splendid character development, effortlessly pulls you into the storytelling and keeps you fully invested, heart in your mouth as you, like the parents, become desperate for the safe return of Faye. In the book, some of the characters ask Sive what it’s like to be a stay-at-home mum – to not have to worry about work. This too is drawn from real life. I have clear memories of people telling me they envied me having so much free time, when I was working full-time hours with no childcare.”Marissa Irvine believes her son Milo is on a post school playdate with Jenny’s son Jacob and duly arrives at 14 Tudor Grove to collect him only to find the front door opened by a complete stranger. Thus begins every parents nightmare. Jenny is in France on business and has no knowledge of any arrangements and over the next few days suspicions fall in several places. The story is told from several perspectives including Marissa and Jenny which works very well.

Sive and her three children are standing on a crowded tube platform waiting to board. Her two eldest daughters jump on the train but as she tries to wangle the buggy with he youngest, the doors close and the trains takes off. Sive rushes to the next stop telling herself that things will be okay but when she reaches the next platform, only one of her daughters is there.Es un thriller adictivo del que devoras páginas y páginas sin apenas darte cuenta. Trata el tema de la desaparición de un menor pero con mucha originalidad ya que al final no va a ser el tema central. Hacia el final cuando ya crees que está todo resuelto (ya me pilló por sorpresa porque no acerté) vuelven a ocurrir cosas que te dejan con la boca abierta de nuevo. Porque menudo final!! It's only when you reach the next stop that you truly begin to panic. Because there aren't two children waiting for you on the platform. There's only one. As with her other fabulous books Andrea sends us down blind alley after blind alley. Just when you think you have one bit neatly figured out she drops another bombshell on you. El final es bueno. Marissa se ve enfrentada a una situación imposible y hay que reconocer que la resuelve. No estoy muy segura de que sea la mejor manera, pero desde luego impacta. lilac is one of the best series ever. This book has a great plot, it uncovers stuff in every chapter. I love the way theres a diary bit through the story.
