A fantastic short story that had me absorbed, slightly disturbed, and a little terrified particularly because I am a mother myself. And the ending!!!!! Gripping but at the same time infuriating.

I read this short story in one sitting and couldn't get through the pages fast enough. I loved how it flicked between different POV - mother and kidnappers - allowing you to know things that some of the other characters weren't privy to. This was so well written and it gave heaps of clever clues along the way. Although the motive wasn't fully explained for both the kidnappers, I still throughly enjoyed it. However as a mum I am more than a little freaked out by it.

This was much darker than the other book I have read by this author - Everyone in my Family has Killed Someone.
