The neighbour

by Lisa Gardner

"It was a case guaranteed to spark a media feeding frenzy - a pretty young mother disappears without trace from her South Boston home. Her four-year-old daughter, the only witness - her handsome, secretive husband the prime suspect. But in the Jones's snug little bungalow, Detective Sergeant D.D. Warren suspects the picture of wholesome normality the couple has created. Jason and Sandra Jones seem like most hardworking couples raising a child. But under the surface things grow murkier. With the clock ticking on the life of a missing woman, the media firestorm is building and Jason Jones seems more intent on destroying evidence and isolating his daughter than on searching for his 'beloved' wife. Is the perfect husband trying to hide his guilt - or just trying to hide?"--Publisher description.
