PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

Jane Harper's FORCE OF NATURE meets the wild and atmospheric setting of THE GREAT ALONE by Kristin Hannah in this twisty stay-up-all-night thriller about family, love and loyalty, and the fight for survival in the most beautiful but dangerous New Zealand wilderness.

On the remote West Coast of the South Island, vast forests stretch out between mountain ranges and rugged beaches. There, in the small town of Koraha, not a lot happens - until a young girl with blood on her hands walks out of the bush and into the local store, collapsing to the floor.

She can't - or won't - speak to anyone. It's the town's sole policeman who recognises her face. She looks exactly like a local girl who disappeared twenty years ago. She has the same red hair. The same green eyes.

What horrors has she left behind in the bush? Who will come looking for her? And what secrets are about to come to light?

A twisty and daring thriller about how those close to you can be even more dangerous than the deadliest wilderness.

'From the deep dark wilds of the New Zealand bush to searing memories of sins past, The Vanishing Place breaks new ground in a genuinely thrilling ride' LISA GARDNER

'A hauntingly atmospheric tale of family secrets . . . will keep you up late at night' ROSE CARLYLE

'A white-knuckle tale of evil and love' CHARITY NORMAN

About the Author

Zoe Rankin grew up in Scotland. She studied International Relations with Arabic before going on to qualify as a teacher. She spent many years travelling in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, and eventually settled in New Zealand. Her father was in mountain rescue in Scotland, and so her passion for the outdoors grew early. She spends a lot of time hiking and cycling with her two young children in New Zealand, and the more remote locations inspired the idea for The Vanishing Place.
