Summary

Thirteen years ago, Olivia Adams went missing. Now she's back...or is she?

When six-year-old Olivia Adams disappeared from her back garden, the small community of Stoneridge was thrown into turmoil. How could a child vanish in the middle of a cozy English village?

Thirteen years on and Olivia is back. Her mother is convinced it's her but not everyone is sure. If this is the missing girl, then where has she been - and what happened to her on that sunny afternoon?

If she's an imposter, then who would be bold enough to try to fool a child's own mother - and why?

Then there are those who would rather Olivia stayed missing. The past is the past and some secrets must remain buried.

An absorbing and gripping psychological thriller that will have you holding your breath until the final minute.

enjoyable

I did enjoy this book but I was able to work parts of it out before the clues came, but it didn't spoil the stories and it kept me interested all the way through . I was glad I bought it

The Girl Who Came Back

10 stars if possible. A super narration with, brilliant mystery story right to the end. I thought I'd worked it out but was slightly wrong. Good, it beat me, so that makes the brilliance of it. ✔️👍

Redeemed by its ending

I suspect that had I been reading this book rather than listening to it I would have stopped before the halfway point because so little seemed to happen. However, I persevered and was glad I did because the ending, although not surprising (I’d guessed the twist), was satisfying, due to its moral ambiguity.

Great book

Really enjoyed this book, although I guessed who she was early on, there was still plenty of twists at the end.

Narrator's tone of voice a little annoying

Overall the story was ok but the narrator used a very simpering tone throughout which didn't always match what was being said
