About this item:

A MISSING GIRL

AN ORPHANAGE FILLED WITH SECRETS

Order the new psychological crime thriller from bestselling author Daniel G. Miller


Hazel wants a new life.

She’s thirty years old, single, and her private investigation business is months away from folding.

Her luck takes a turn when Madeline Hemsley, a mysterious socialite, pays Hazel a visit with an offer too enticing to resist. An orphan girl has disappeared from a children’s home—The Orphanage By The Lake, as the locals call it—and Madeline wants Hazel to find her.

At first glance, it appears to be a standard runaway case, but as Hazel plunges into the investigation, she finds signs of something more: unexplained blood stains, cryptic symbols, sinister figures shadowing her every move.
The more she digs, the more she realizes that The Orphanage By The Lake holds terrifying secrets, and even worse…

…so does Madeline.


Fans of Freida McFadden's "The Housemaid", Charlie Donlea's "The Girl Who Was Taken", and Karin Slaughter's "Pretty Girls" will love this twisty, suspenseful thill-ride.

This novel delivered even with such a small setting. It touches on many relevant issues which I always appreciate when attention is drawn to them. I love the diversity of the characters, especially the main being Korean. I was able to predict much of the story but was still entertained. Easy and quick read.

I finished the book 3 days after I received. Only complaint I have is the sleepless nights I had because I couldn’t stop reading it!! Suspenseful story, great writing.

A Character Driven Thriller with a Compelling Plot

R.L. · July 10, 2024

This is a well-written thriller with characters you can care about.I particularly enjoyed the dynamics between Hazel and her roommate, Kenny.Hazel's psychological challenges in this investigation are clearly linked to her motivation as a private investigator and her commitment to the case.

good story, solid twist

J. · September 13, 2024

The main character is flawed in a way that you can’t help but keep reading. I thought I picked it early but it definitely had me second guessing who the bad guy was.A quick read but worth it.
