It was my first reading encounter with the work of Paul Gitsham.
After "Web of Lies" I know that I must reach for other books by this author.
I received an excellent investigation led by, among others, Detective Superintendent Warren Jones.
He was investigating the disappearance of his 31-year-old wife and mother, Louisa Greenland.
She left for work and has not been heard from since.
What happened to her?
Will she ever see her daughters and her husband again?
Here one lie is chasing another.
The investigation goes in the right direction, then the action takes a turn and everything spins around.
The fast-paced action doesn't let you stop reading.
The ending is a veritable armageddon.
You will be shocked to know the truth.
The book is very emotional.
A great thriller not to be missed.
Wow perfect story.
The mistakes of youth affect our future.
Remember that.
