What happens to those girls who go missing? What happens to the Zoe Nolans of the world?' In the early hours of Saturday, December 17th, 2011, Zoe Nolan, a 19-year-old Manchester University student, walked out of a party taking place in the shared accommodation where she had been living for three months. She was never seen again.

Although the actual mystery at the core of this book is relatively standard and there are occasionally misdirects that are so obviously red herrings that they might as well have actually been Red Herring himself from A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, this was an entertaining page-turner. The biggest selling points - its podcast-like structure and metafictional narrative - could be seen as gimmicky, but it worked for this particular reader. I also appreciated that not all questions were truly answered, especially concerning the relationship between "Joseph Knox" and Evelyn. Had my issues, but overall giving this one 3.5 misdirects out of 5, bumped up because I was reading it every spare chance I had.
