For listeners of Kate Atkinson and Tana France comes a pause-resisting literary unknown that brings to life the complex and wholly relatable Manon Bradshaw, a strong-willed detective designated to a high-risk lacking person case. At 39, Manon Bradshaw is a committed and respected member of the Cambridgeshire police force, and though she adores her job, what she longs for is an individual life. Sole and faraway from her family, she would like a husband and children of her own. One evening, after another disastrous Internet day, she turns on her authorities radio to help herself drift off - and will get an alert that sends her to a puzzling criminal offenses scene. Edith Hind - a lovely graduate scholar at Cambridge University and princess of the medical expert to the Royal Family - has been lacking for nearly 24 hours. Her home offers few signs: a smattering of bloodstream in the kitchen, her tips and phone left behind, the front door ajar but demonstrating no symptoms of forced access. Manon instantly understands that this case will be big - and that each second is crucial to locating Edith alive. The investigation starts off with Edith's loved ones: her attentive partner, her reserved best friend, her patrician parents. As the search widens and press coverage grows to a frenzied pitch, secrets begin to emerge about Edith's tangled love life and her erratic patterns before her disappearance. Without clear leads, Manon summons every last little bit of her skill and intuition to close the truth, and what she discovers will have surprising consequences not merely for Edith's family but also for Manon herself. Suspenseful and keenly seen, Missing, Presumed is a brilliantly twisting book of how we seek connection, give forgiveness, and expose the truth about who our company is.
