The Last Time She Saw Him (Julia Gooden Mystery #1)The Last Time She Saw Him by Jane Haseldine

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


In her debut novel, Jane Haseldine creates a winner, in my opinion. Julia Gooden was seven-years-old when her brother disappeared, and the case has not been solved. Thirty years later, she is married with two children and journalism is her profession. But solving her brother's disappearance is always in the background--never far from her conscious mind.

Then, her house is broken into, and her youngest son is taken. Circumstances are somewhat similar to her brother's case. Are they related? Is there an actual connection going back thirty years?

The writing and character development is superb, not to mention the pace of the story, as well as the many twists and turns it takes. I'll be looking forward to more of this Series.

I received an advance reader's copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
