** A stand-alone novel in Peter R Stone's 'Girl' series **
After disappearing six months ago on the night her best friend was found strangled in the Darebin Creek hotel toilet block, Caitlyn Hughes - daughter of millionaire Brayden Hughes - is found dumped on the side of the road just outside town. Wearing a threadbare knee-length dress and with her badly-bruised ankles encased in leg irons, she's filthy, malnourished and covered in burn scars. She has no memory of how she got there, where she has been or even who she is. A doctor's examination reveals that her memory has been deliberately erased by repeated electric shock therapy. Desperate to find out who did this to her and why, and displeased with the police superintendent's plodding pace, Caitlyn launches an investigation of her own. However, she is unnerved by her brother's insistence that she talk to him first when her memories start returning because he suspects that their father is the one who did this to her...

From Peter R Stone, the author who brought us 'Girl, Abandoned,' and the thrilling post-apocalyptic 'Forager' six-book series.

Peter R Stone, an avid student of history, was reading books on Ancient Greece from the age of four.

He still mourns the untimely passing of King Leonidas of Sparta and Field Marshal Michel Ney of France.

A product of the Cold War Generation, Peter Stone studied the ramifications of a nuclear missile strike when he was in his senior year of high school, learning the effects of nuclear fallout and how to (hopefully) survive it.

He has worked in the same games company for years, but still does not comprehend why they expect him to work all day instead of playing games.

Great thriller

This story kept you on your toes until the end. So much drama and conspiracy. What the main character Lists had to go through. Couldn't believe who the kidnapper was. Can't wait to read more from this author!

I couldn't get into this book like I did Girl Abandoned. It's a good book just a little different. Half way thru till the end is very good. There are a few surprises you won't see coming.

I could not put this book down. It had me hooked in the first few pages and through to the end. I think it could have been a little bit shorter but all in all a very good read.

I was captivated about the Hughes family and what they were doing involved in. I was thumbing pages and absorbing the material thinking I knew where this was going. But at the fifty percent mark the book to a dramatic turn in a whole different direction. No spoilers here but you have to read it to believe it. This author is a master story teller. All I can say is well done.

Another Peter R. Stone gem! Not normally my cup of tea, but i have read the Forager series along with the two girl books and haven't read a bad book yet.
This one is a good mystery. I had no idea of who the real bad guy was until the reveal. Well done!

I really enjoyed this book as it is not the run of the mill thriller. It has lots of twists especially at the end.

Far fetched

Very far fetched storyline. Characters not likeable at all. Not badly written but was a bit hard To keep track sometimes. I would say a so-so book

Far-Fetched but still a Page-Turner

Reviewed in Australia on January 20, 2021

Verified Purchase

I enjoyed the mystery of Caitlyn and the small-town secrets, which kept me turning the pages until the very end. Her family had absolutely no morals, and I didn't like most of the characters in this novel. I only liked Caitlyn and the town's psychologist, Alice. Caitlyn was kidnapped and returns home, but she's lost her memory and slowly she regains fragments of her past. She investigates until she gets to the truth. In spite of enjoying the story, I found it extremely far-fetched in terms of how she was always easily triggered, but that's not how regaining your memory works. I found her memory coming back to her was more a matter of convenience for the plot of the story, but it was not realistic, especially when the character had experienced significant trauma. She remembered things far too quickly. However, the ending was interesting and it tied everything together. It definitely got me turning the pages.
