The bones were partly charred and authorities believed they had been there for two years, as a bushfire had "swept across the site" in 1982. Chisholm designed a most rewarding and gratifying ending for both the reader and her primary characters!

However, apart from an incident in the middle of the book and the aforementioned ending, it's not particularly violent – the thrills come from the psychological aspects of the plot in the main, as Sarah grows aware that she's being watched, and tries to deal with both cases and a new love interest. The book is incredibly pacy, with Sarah stumbling on Jenny's corpse midway through the first chapter, and from then on the story never slows down. She continues to grow the fantastic partnerships already established with Police and encourages new ways of working. She starts to notice what is going on around her, and it's what she starts to see that help her piece together what probably happened to Charlie.

Read all Set during World War II, Missing Jane is the story of Gordon Idaho, a B-17 bomber radio operator, who is thrust in with a new crew when their radio operator is killed over the skies of Europe in the winter of 1943.The man in question was later identified as businessman Alan Anthony Munro (aged 75 in 2017), a former scoutmaster who had pleaded guilty to ten child sex offences dating back to 1962.

DNA testing was done with the help of family members, which led to the positive identification of Ware County Jane Doe as 5-year-old Kenyatta Odom.

Journalist Jane made her debut on Loose Women over 20 years ago, when the ITV lunchtime discussion show made its debut. She and another co-worker, Pam Head, left the employee meeting to take Bostron to the emergency room at UC Irvine Medical Center.There are quite a few twists and turns, including an attraction to one of the investigating officers, and the unwanted attentions of a persistent admirer, a colleague at the school, both of which play a crucial role in the story. The couple later divorced and lived separately, [12] having resolved to live their final years away from the public attention that followed them for decades. Jo has led the charity Missing People since 2012, awarded ‘Rising CEO by the Third Sector in 2014’ and Top Social CEO on social media in 2015 and 2016. However, there were maybe some parts of the story I did wish to see fleshed out with a little bit more detail – like who is this new aunt that Jane was intending to visit and more about Jane’s and Elizabeth’s feelings towards their suitors and their moments of introspection/change of heart. Hope you can get hold of it, it is an easy read as well, not too challenging for when you are exhausted after work and trying not to fall asleep but don't have much of a brain left.
