One Big Happy Family

<p><strong>Watching my beautiful rosy-cheeked baby Ava play in the sand I can't believe how much joy she's brought me. I look at the gentle waves of the ocean sparkling in the sun. But when I turn back Ava is gone...</strong></p><p> </p><p>Everyone rushes to the beach to help search for Ava but there's no trace of her anywhere nearby. My ex-husband <strong>Jimmy</strong> is just as terrified as I am. But I get an odd feeling from his new girlfriend <strong>Leah</strong>. As she cradles my other two children she doesn't seem as panicked as Jimmy and me. How can she be so calm?</p><p> </p><p>Then they show me footage of Ava on a bus held tightly by an elderly woman who looks just like Leah's mother. Leah couldn't have anything to do with Ava's disappearance could she?</p><p> </p><p>I've seen the way Leah clings tightly to Jimmy how she has moulded herself into the perfect housewife never letting him lift a finger and cooking my children's favourite meals every day. </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Then the police officer in charge fixes me with a cold stare as he asks me why I wasn't paying attention to my daughter. Suggesting it's my fault she's gone... That my older two would be safer in Leah's care.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Should I share my suspicions? What if the police are looking in the wrong place?<strong> Time is running out to find Ava and I'll do whatever it takes to get her back but are my accusations about to tear my whole family apart?</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Fans of Liane Moriarty Jodi Picoult and Linda Green will be completely gripped by this jaw-dropping page-turner filled with heart-stopping emotional twists.</strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>What readers are saying about Sam Vickery:</strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>'<strong>WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW</strong>...<strong> If I could rate this above 5 believe me I would!!</strong>...
