Summary

The police are here. The feeling of pure dread swirls in my stomach as a million scenarios start playing out in my head. My whole life I’ve expected something bad to happen to my daughter. It is as if part of me has been expecting it. As if I deserve it.

Fifteen-year-old Kayla is the apple of her parents’ eyes, their beautiful only daughter. They tried for so long to have her that she was even more precious when she arrived. But deep down, her mother Sherrie has always been terrified that their worst fear would come true: that Kayla would be taken from them.

Then one day—just as Sherrie had dreaded—Kayla fails to return home after a sleepover. In desperation, Sherrie and her husband Richard call Kayla’s friends. They scour the streets, their search becoming more and more frantic. Until the police arrive and deliver the shocking news, when their worst nightmare comes true: Someone has their daughter.

As Sherrie and Richard grill friends, family, and even each other, Sherrie starts to wonder: Has the secret they’ve been hiding all these years finally caught up with them?

Because Sherrie and Richard are living a lie. A lie so huge, so shocking, that it could destroy the one thing they hold most dear—their daughter.

And if the truth comes out, their family will never be the same. But if it doesn’t, they will never see their precious girl again....

A psychological thriller that will have you gasping out loud. If you love Lisa Jewell, K.L. Slater, and T.M. Logan, you’ll be obsessed with Only Child.

Such a good read

loved it , kept me thinking in all directions until the end ! the narrator's voice was perfect for this book. a pleasure to listen to. the story line is excellent and gets you thinking, you know what's coming, but that all changes a few times as you read on. Can't wait for next Casey Kelleher one and if you haven't already read "I'll never tell " I would highly recommend it

An absolute triumph

Incredible stuff from Casey once again , completely immersive , twists and turns and story lines and characters that just have you completely gripped. Considering it’s a different genre than Casey usually does it hasn’t lost the quality of writing , absolutely perfect ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dreadful

I can’t believe I stuck with it! Dreary and predictable. A total waste of a credit.
