A tense and claustrophobic rollercoaster
Nina Manning, author of <i>The Daughter in Law</i>
It's been a long time since I've stayed up late to finish a book. When They Find Her is not only utterly gripping but also a sensitive and moving portrayal of parental love. Middleton's astute writing made me feel as though I was there was Naomi in her every moment of tension

When They Find Her opens with an unthinkable wallop to the heart, and takes off racing from there through a perfectly crafted, tightly written, deeply emotional story that taps into the most uncomfortable fears of motherhood and marriage. A stand-out psychological thriller with heart.
Ashley Audrain, <i>Sunday Times</i> bestselling author of <The Push</i>
'Nightmarish, dark and twisty, I galloped to end. A domestic psychological drama with polish'
Sophie Draper, author of <i>Cuckoo</i>
