Perfect for you if...

You love unreliable narrators and twisty plots where the answer keeps shifting as new perspectives emerge.
You're gripped by stories where a parent's worst fear becomes reality and the emotional stakes feel devastatingly real.
You want a thriller that builds dread through character suspicion rather than action sequences.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer fast-paced thrillers with clear villains and constant plot momentum over psychological complexity.
You find stories about missing children too emotionally draining or triggering to read for entertainment.
You're looking for a cosy mystery or lighthearted page-turner rather than something dark and tense.

About this book

Sadie Wilson's five-year-old daughter Emma disappears on her first day of kindergarten after boarding the school bus. When Sadie receives the call confirming her worst fear, she struggles to manage her grief while desperately trying to bring her daughter home. As Sadie searches for answers, she identifies multiple suspects connected to Emma: a secretive teacher, a registered sex offender, a delusional neighbor, a disgruntled ex-wife, and an evasive principal. Each person seems to harbor a hidden grudge. Complicating matters, Sadie senses that her husband Allen, despite his support, may also be concealing something. The Last Morning unfolds from multiple perspectives, revealing twists as the investigation deepens into the circumstances surrounding Emma's disappearance. This is the first book in The Secrets of Chapel Roads series.
