Synopsis
From the groundbreaking author of 55 comes an extraordinary new thriller... Lorcan and Naiyana are desperate to move their young family far away from the hustle and bustle of modern city life.The abandoned town of Kallayee seems like the perfect getaway: no one has lived there for decades. It will be peaceful. Quiet. Secure.But life in Kallayee isn&’t quite as straightforward as they hope. Lights flicker at night. Car tracks appear in the dust even when the family hasn&’t driven anywhere. And six-year-old Dylan is certain he can hear strange sounds.Lorcan and Naiyana refuse to leave. No one can talk sense into them.And now, no one can talk to them at all.They&’ve simply vanished.Praise so far for Vanished: &‘Delargy manages to turn the wide-open deserted Outback into something intensely claustrophobic and chilling&’ Russ Thomas * * * Readers love 55 by James Delargy* * * &‘A pulse-pounding psycho-thriller . . . splendidly-engineered plot and a masterly sense of pace allied to a haunting background make for a powerful debut&’ Crime Time &‘A clever concept for this fast-moving debut, fleshed out with a sympathetic hero haunted by grim memories&’ Sunday Times Crime Club &‘Brilliantly atmospheric…with a sense of menace that pervades every page.
