My Review

When Emily disappears as a toddler from a Florida theme park, it leaves a family desperately craving answers. On the fifteenth anniversary of her disappearance, it seems they are no nearer to discovering the truth - until younger sister Rosie starts to delve into the murky depths of the internet.
In America, Anna is starting to question who she is. When she receives a mysterious letter from a man in a white suit, her life begins to unravel. 
This is an excellent read told from the two viewpoints of Emily and Rosie. Full of suspense it kept me turning the pages as I followed the girls' journeys. In any story involving missing children, there is unlikely to be a happy ending - lives have been changed and when so many years have gone by it is impossible to fill in the gaps especially when nobody is who they seem. Nevertheless, there is at least a sense of closure and new beginnings in this story. Thoroughly engrossing.
