Description
The Missing Children Case Files: Case 2
'Mind-blowingly addictive!' Samantha Lee Howe, USA Today-bestselling author of The Stranger in Our Bed
A bloody pig's head nailed to a wall...
Investigate journalist Emma Hunter is in the thick of another cold case featuring a game of truth or dare in a dark forest by a Dorset army base 15 years ago that went horribly wrong. Four girls went in, only three came out.
A Wiccan map splattered with red ink...
Wreathed in mist and memory, the barracks offered no remains of any kind, just a hole in the perimeter fence and years of unanswered questions.
An ancient ritual drenched in death...
But when Emma teams up with fellow firebrand reporter Rachel and whip-smart cold case expert Jack, she soon discovers it wasn't a game at all as a grand and sinister pattern begins to unfurl around them.
Jessica Fletcher meets Taken... The second explosive instalment in The Missing Children Case Files is an unputdownable crime thriller of abduction, betrayal, and isolation, perfect for fans of J M Dalgliesh and Michael Connelly.

Person
M. A. Hunter has been a huge fan of crime fiction series since a young age and always fancied the idea of trying to write one. That dream became a reality with The Missing Children Case Files.
Born in Darlington in the north-east of England, Hunter grew up in West London, and moved to Southampton to study law at university. When not writing, Hunter can be found binge-watching favourite shows or buried in the latest story from Angela Marsons, Simon Kernick, or Ann Cleeves.
