Lia Middleton is a barrister who specialises in crime and prison law, and lives with her husband and two young children in Buckinghamshire. You can find her on Twitter @liamiddlet0n and on Instagram @liamiddletonauthor. When They Find Her is her first novel.
When They Find Her opens with an unthinkable wallop to the heart,
and takes off racing from there through a perfectly crafted,
tightly written, deeply emotional story that taps into the most
uncomfortable fears of motherhood and marriage. A stand-out
psychological thriller with heart.

Uncomfortable and compelling - a story which is truly the stuff of
nightmares. Couldn't put it down

The barrister background of this writer makes the police and court
procedural parts of this story particularly powerful . . .
Middleton has a lawyer's keen eye for telling detail but the real
strength of the story comes from the convincing depiction of a
mother's love . . . a promising debut from a new voice

A brilliant concept that pulled me straight into the story and kept
me hooked to the end

written and chillingly plausible ... a bold, compelling and clever
debut

A tense and claustrophobic rollercoaster

It's been a long time since I've stayed up late to finish a book.
