Gone - Mo Hayder


Gone - Mo Hayder (2010)

Mo Hayder is an author that constantly is able to thrill and scare you in her books, as skill that some suspence/thriller authors have forgotten how to do, often victims of their own success, they become lazy and churn out the same old version of a story.

The subject matter for this one is a bit iffy for me, I am not a big fan of the child abduction scenarios, and would always try and avoid the child rape/murder books. It felt a bit edge of the seat for me, as I couldn't really see what was going to happen next until two thirds of the way through, and even when I figured out who the baddy was, it didn't have the ending I expected which was a nice touch.

So a solid 3/5 for this little thrill.
