let us know which books you would like to read or recommend that we select as future choices, if it is one you have already enjoyed then maybe a brief synopsis so if we have a poll members have an idea of what they are selecting

then we can have a wide range to choose from in the future Very Happy

thankyou!

: Sam Hayes

Haven't read it yet but the gist of it [I think] is based on a father preparing to send his gifted step-daughter to school for the gifted. Only to find something not right with his wife's reluctance to let the child go off.

13 years before a young baby was left5 alone for a moment whilst the mother popped into a shop. On her return the baby had disappeared?

definitely a good choice, I read it and cried buckets, its good to help understand some child protection issues but can't explain why unless youve read it
