Girl Gone Missing (Lambert and Hook British Crime Mysteries Book 11)
By J. M. Gregson
The body of a missing schoolgirl is discovered washed up by the walls of Chepstow Castle. The victim is Alison Watts, and from the look of her decomposing body, she’s been there a while.
Alison’s bruised legs and throat suggest she was dead before she reached the water. For Superintendent Lambert and Sergeant Hook, a missing person’s case has just become a murder.
As Lambert and Hook delve deeper into the murky depths of the local community, they discover shocking secrets about Alison. The local papers had initially portrayed her as the picture of innocence. But was she really the bright and beautiful schoolgirl they described?
It seems it’s not just the murderer who has something to hide . . .
Alison’s complicated life reveals a host of suspects: teachers bearing grudges, her supposedly sweet boyfriend and an abusive stepfather. But who disliked Alison enough to kill her?
It’s up to Superintendent Lambert and Sergeant Hook to uncover the murderer.
Girl Gone Missing is an enthralling police procedural, perfect for fans of Betty Rowlands, Agatha Christie, L. J. Ross, Joy Ellis, M.C. Beaton or Faith Martin.
