My baby girl. This morning she was so excited for school. I bought her new shoes last night. Pink, sparkly shoes. She loved them so much. She wore them for the first time today. And now she is gone... It is every mother's worst nightmare. (…more)

Lucy Kendall is surveilling a possible target at a local bar. She's a private investigator with a difference as she dispenses her own justice on the paedophiles & rapists in her city. This time, however, when she returns from the bathroom ready to hone in on her target, he is nowhere to be seen & in his place is a stranger who says he knows what she does & that he does the same thing. Lucy plays it cool but she's worried she's about to get caught.

OutsmartYourShelf When eight-year-old Kailey goes missing on the way home from school, Lucy realises that someone from her past lives in the neighbourhood, a young man named Justin, whom she met whilst working for the CPS several years ago & who was accused of a terrible crime when he was a boy. Is the past repeating itself?

OutsmartYourShelf First of all, the subject matter is going to make this a difficult book for some people to read, so please be aware that it deals with child abduction, paedophilia, & child abuse. The narrative is well-written though & even though some parts have graphic violence, I felt it was dealt with in an appropriate manner. The MC is definitely one that the reader roots for, she's kind of kick-ass. 2y
OutsmartYourShelf Overall I thought it was a gripping read with plenty of twists & turns. There's a little bit of possible future romance/spark but nothing over the top at this stage. I plan on reading at least the next one in the series. 3.5🌟

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Bookouture, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

Read 7th-10th Jan 2023

This is book 1 in the Lucy Kendall series. Lucy worked in Child Protective Services but is now a Private Investigator. Her 13 year old sister went missing and killed her self in the aftermath. It is a psychological thriller and a real page-turner. An 8 year old is now missing and Lucy needs to find her.

EadieB The ending was satisfying and kept the pages turning. I am looking forward to the next book in the series in order to get to know Lucy better. If you love psychological thrillers then you will love this book. I would like to thank Bookouture and NetGalley for a copy for an honest review. 2y
