Summary
One girl missing, one woman searching, both equally lost. Will a shared tragedy help them find their way home - even in the face of imminent danger?
Renowned archaeologist Richard Mathis is half a world away on the island of Crete when he learns his daughter, Bella, has gone missing. Within twenty minutes, he’s on his way back to the States. Two days later, he’s dead.
Richard’s young assistant, Angela Chase, is devastated by the loss of the man who had become both mentor and friend, and she’s determined to find the missing girl, who seems to have made dangerous connections - and whose lonely childhood so resembles Angela’s own. Born Laurel Springfield, Angela now spends her days digging up the origins of a lost civilization while struggling to keep her own past buried. But will the search for Bella expose Angela’s carefully disguised identity - and will she find Bella before she’s lost forever?
Critic reviews
“The Girl at the Border is mesmerizing. You’ll find yourself unable to set it aside!” (Liz Fenton & Lisa Steinke, best-selling authors of Girls’ Night Out)
“Fascinating and unexpected. The Girl at the Border is one of those rare novels that manages to be current, smart, and completely involving. Loved it.” (Gregg Olsen, number-one New York Times best-selling author)
“An ambitious novel from an author with a distinct voice. The Girl at the Border sinks its teeth into loss, abandonment, and revenge and we’re better off for having lived the story beside the characters.” (Robert Dugoni, New York Times best-selling author)

I enjoyed it.
I liked the characters in this story and the plot was interesting. I felt there were some odd decisioms made by the characters along the way and a few developments that didn't sit as well as I'd have liked but overall I'd recommend it.
