Mandy Miller disappeared from Hallow’s End when she was just three years old.
She was never found.
Thirty years on, Elaine Ellis is carrying her mother’s ashes back to Hallow’s End to
scatter them in the place that she once called home. Elaine has never been there, but
it’s the only place Jean talked about while she was growing up – so it seems as good a
place as any.
As Elaine settles into her holiday cottage in the peaceful Devonshire village, she gets
to know the locals; family she never knew she had; eccentric and old-fashioned
gentry, and new friends where she would least expect them. But she is intrigued by
the tale of the missing girl that the village still carries at its heart, and which somehow
continues to overshadow them all. Little does she know how much more involved in
the mystery she will become…
On the 19th of May Ann Troup's debut novel titled 'The Lost Child' was released by Carina UK and it's a release I am quite excited about! 'The Lost Child' promises to be an intriguing and mysterious novel which will have us on the edge of our seats. I have a good feeling many people will be talking about this book and I can't wait to pick it up myself!
About Ann Troup
Ann lives in Devon in a small house just a pebble’s throw from the beach. She shares her home with her husband and a small white dog, both occasionally allow her to be inattentive to them so that she can write. Her many skills include an unparalleled ability to consume coffee and the gift of being able to kill houseplants by merely admiring them.
In addition to that she is a great proponent of the Miss Havisham method of housekeeping, which includes regarding cobwebs and dust as nature’s ornaments. Her debut novel 'The Lost Child' will be published by Carina UK on 19/5/2015.
