Description
Not every missing person is meant to be found…
When troubled nurse Alina vanishes one night, it’s assumed she ran away from her violent husband. Until disgraced ex-teacher Emily Swanson moves into the couple’s vacated home.
Emily’s life is in ruins and she’s meant to be making a fresh start. But when she learns about the missing nurse, she sees a chance for redemption.
Because finding Alina could help right the wrongs of Emily’s past. All she needs to do is follow the clues.
But what Emily doesn’t know is that Alina had a horrifying secret. One about the care foundation she worked for. And the closer Emily gets to uncovering the truth, the closer she gets to terrible danger.
Blending twisty murder mystery with chilling psychological suspense, Next to Disappear is the first in a five-book British detective series featuring private investigator Emily Swanson.

5By ndgasThis book had many twists and turns. There were not too many characters so that you couldn’t keep them straight. Horrify story of abuse and the power of money to turn people evil. Really enjoyed the read.Next to Disappear
4By Clean romancerWell written but not my type of book. I avoid stories/movies that give me angst. If you are someone who likes the suspenseful feeling that the heroine will never succeed, then this book is for you.Next to disappear
