In Gone, Hayder's seventh novel, and the fifth to feature her popular murder detective Jack Caffery, the scene is set in early winter, in the West Country. Caffery is brought in to interview the victim of a car-jacking. So far, so routine. But this incident is different. This time the car was taken by force, and on the back seat was a passenger, an eleven year old girl. She is still missing. Before long the jacker himself starts to communicate directly with the police, and Caffery knows this wasn't a one-off. He will strike again - another car with another child on the back seat. Even scarier still is the fact that the jacker seems to be one step ahead of the police, no matter how quickly they pursue him. In a race against time, Caffery must track and find his criminal, before more innocent victims become another notch on the dashboard ...

Reviews with the most likes.
Quite the book. Creepy as heck, also a tad bit disturbing. I really enjoyed Mo Hayder's writing, even if the book disturbed me to no end. There were a lot of twists and turns in this book.
I really struggled with rating to give this. But decided on 4 stars since it has stuck with me. Yes the subject matter is highly disturbing, but Mo Hayder's writing is great and her stories are unpredictable.
