Summary

She thought he’d come to save her. She was wrong.

Deborah Jenkins pulls her coat around her as she sets out on her short walk home in the pouring rain. But she never makes it home that night. And she is never seen again....

Four years later, an abandoned baby girl is found wrapped in dirty rags on a doorstep. An anonymous phone call urges the police to run a DNA test on the baby. But nobody is prepared for the results.

The newborn belongs to Deborah. She’s still alive.

If you love Lisa Gardner, Patricia Gibney and Robert Bryndza, you’ll love this jaw-dropping new crime thriller from Carla Kovach. The Next Girl will keep you guessing until the very last second.

Fabulous book

Really enjoyed this book and look forward to hearing the next in series. Gripping from start to finish, I couldn't stop listening and narrator was excellent. The author developed all the characters well so you really can't wait to find out what happens.

The Next Girl

The Next Girl by Carla Kovach. A Detective Gina Harte book The first in the series. A brilliant story which keeps you on edge all through the book right to the very end.
The narration by Tamsin Kennard was also very good so I must get the next one.

The Next Girl

I thought it was a great story to listen to. Well paced and believable characters. As I got further into the story I needed to hear more and get to the end which did not disappoint at all.

Gripping right until the end!

If I could give this book more stars I would! It’s a brilliant story of twists and turns and ends in a very gripping finale! I couldn’t wait to get back to it.
I’d highly recommend it!

Overall a great listen

It had me hooked that's for sure and i listened to it in very little time. I wish it had given more follow up and ended less suddenly after so much build up. I also didn't love how much the word mucas was used but I would still recommend it if you are interested in the story

I did enjoy the story and characters. However I found parts of the narration a bit shouty.. which detracted from the listening experience.. will definitely check out other books by same author
