About the Book:
The missing don't always want to be found...Kate Harlow recognizes this painful truth, even as she keeps searching for her daughter, Sophie, who disappeared two years ago. The police have stopped investigating--after all, Sophie has sent postcards home, insisting that she's fine. To fill the space in her increasingly empty days, Kate volunteers at Message in a Bottle, where runaways can leave messages for loved ones, no questions asked. Then one evening, a call comes in from a voice Kate instinctively recognizes, even through bursts of static and beyond the sudden dial tone that breaks their connection. Those closest to Kate worry she's cracking under her grief, imagining that it was Sophie. But Kate knows--that it was her daughter on the phone. And that a stranger has been inside her house. Watching her. Sophie is out there. And Kate has to find her, even if someone will try anything to stop her.

What a wild ride. Where the Missing Go is a deeply captivating psychological thriller, which starts off from the perspective of Kate, mother of the missing Sophie. I wasn’t sure what to expect, honestly. The pacing wasn't too fast nor was it a slow burner, as Goldilocks once said...it was just right. Ms. Rowley does a wonderful job of teasing out elements of plot that will keep readers guessing until the dramatic conclusion of the book.

I devoured this book in in one sitting, and I was absolutely captivated, I couldn’t put it down. All of the twists and turns had me dealing with literary whiplash, and I was constantly guessing the who, what, where, when and why. And that ending...it was amazing. I can’t wait for what Emma Rowley has in store next!
