I am reviewing a copy of The Boy in the Photo through Grand Central Publishing and Netgalley:
Megan waits for her son Daniel at the school gates, but as the playground empties and there’s no sign of her son panic bubbles inside of her.
After over six years of sleepless nights and endless days of missing her son wondering if he was okay Megan finally gets the call she has been dreaming about. Daniel walked into a police station in a remote town just a few miles away.
Megan is overjoyed that her son is finally coming home. She’s kept Daniel’s room with his Cookie Monster poster on the wall and a stack of Lego under the bed, in perfect shape to welcome him back. But when he returns Daniel is not the same, he’s traumatized and acts out.
The police inform her that Daniel was kidnapped by his father. After his dad died in a fire, Daniel was finally able to escape. Megan is desperate to find out the truth and tried to talk to Daniel, but he doesn’t like to answer her questions. Longing to help him heal, Megan tries everything—his favourite chocolate milkshake, a reunion with his best friend, a present for every birthday missed but still, Daniel is distant.
Megan is sure that Daniel is not telling her everything. Daniel is hiding a secret, a secret that could put them all in danger.
I give The Boy in the Photo five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
