If you go, there's no coming back.
Dr Georgia Healey can't grieve. Her nineteen-year-old daughter went for a walk two years ago and vanished. The police never found Stephanie's body. The case has gone stale, but Georgia can't let it go. She knows Stephanie's out there, somewhere.
On the anniversary of Stephanie's disappearance, Georgia's ready to re-interrogate university students, lecturers, Steph's past boyfriends, everyone. She treads the exact path where Stephanie vanished. Yet the shocking truth is even more than she can handle.
When you seek the lost, be prepared for what you find...
The Long Dark Road is one of those books that you think you have the measure of and then it makes a fool of you, this is a good thing!
Tragically Dr Georgia Healey’s daughter Stephanie vanished two years ago, most people assume she committed suicide and that her body will eventually turn up. Georgia thinks otherwise and takes herself back to the university that her daughter attended before she went missing, she is going to go over old ground, speak to friends and lecturers, find something that the police haven’t.
She is determined, she is unwilling to believe her daughter is dead and she in unaware of what is coming.
Georgia is a character that will divide, you do feel sorry for her as of course she has lost her child however some of her actions will make you dislike her. But you know what you have to admire her dedication, she knows something isn’t right and she is going to risk everything to find out.
The Long Dark Road was an enjoyable read, it was a little slow to start but once it got going I really enjoyed it.
