Looking for Leo- J.A Baker psychological thriller
A little boy, Leo, has gone missing. He is safe and being looked after “until his
mother finishes work”. Lynda has started a new art class at the local community
centre with her friend and during the class can't help but feel that the
instructor is familiar- possibly someone she had to testify against over twenty
years ago. Ashton is new to doing this and would love to get into the world
of art but his background prevents him from going down the traditional route.
Sarah is a bored housewife who is now distrusting her husband Malcolm.
He once had an affair and they “lived to tell the tale” but now he seems
distant and she can’t help but feel as if something else is going on. Emily is
a single mum to Joel and has just met a new man Mo. The women meet
up to get to know each other for coffee and inevitably end up discussing
the disappearance and the coincidence of Ashton being back in the village.
I enjoyed this- there is so much more to this than “just a missing child”
there are layers to the characters and depth which comes across really
well. A brilliantly written book that had me turning the pages.
