Pertany a aquestes sèriesDC Beth Chamberlain (book 3)
The latest crime thriller featuring Family Liaison Officer DC Beth Chamberlain, Hush Little Baby is tightly plotted, fraught with tension and impossible to put down. Perfect for fans of Cara Hunter and K.L. Slater. Someone stole a baby... One sunny day in July, someone took three-month-old Alicia Owen from her pram outside a supermarket. Her mother, Marie, was inside. No one saw who took Alicia. And no one could find her. Fifteen years later, a teenager on a construction site sees a tiny hand in the ground. When the police investigate, they find a baby buried and preserved in concrete. Could it be Alicia? When Alicia disappeared, the papers accused Marie of detachment and neglect. The Owens never got over the grief of their child's disappearance and divorced not long after. By reopening the case, DC Beth Chamberlain must reopen old wounds. But the killer may be closer than anyone ever suspected... No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

The corpse of a baby is discovered on a building site and Beth is appointed to liaise with the family who lost their baby 15 years ago. This was a fast-paced read, but strangely anti-climactic in many ways. There is a mystery about the parentage of the dead baby, but that thread sort of fizzles out. Hours are spent searching for a missing family member, and then that thread is abandoned. The facts surrounding the baby's disappearance and death (which are ultimately uncovered when the person responsible spontaneously confesses) are just not that interesting in the end.
This takes you to 80% of the book and then an entirely different story gets going, which only really makes sense if you have read the previous instalment. Not the best in this series. ( )
