Suspense

It's a parent's worst nightmare: a missing child. For newly single mom Beth, the possibility is a constant, gnawing worry, because her dreamy eight-year-old daughter, Carmel, has a tendency to wander off. And then one day, it happens: On a Saturday morning thick with fog, Beth takes Carmel to a local festival, they get separated in the crowd, and Carmel is gone. Shattered, Beth nonetheless sets herself on the grim and lonely mission to find her daughter, keeping on relentlessly even as the authorities tell her that Carmel may be gone for good. Carmel, meanwhile, is on a strange and frightening journey of her own, a journey to a totally unexpected place that requires her to live by her wits, while trying desperately to keep in her head --- at all times --- a vision of her mother. Alternating between Beth's story and Carmel's, and written in gripping prose that won’t let go, The Girl in the Red Coat --- like Emma Donoghue’s Room and M. L. Stedman’s The Light Between Oceans --- is an utterly immersive story that’s impossible to put down ... and impossible to forget.
