Stacy Green is still hitting it out of the ballpark with Little Child Gone, the 10th book in her thrilling and gripping Nikki Hunt series!!!!!! Woohoo! The thrilling and shocking prologue had me glued to the pages! That not only piqued my interest but had my heart pounding right away! Talk about an opener! I had to, not I needed to know more. Stacy Green delivered and then some! Wowza, what a book!
This book starts off strongly and never lets up as Special Agent Nikki Hunt is called to a home with a hidden room and the bones of two people have just been found!!!!! Nikki can’t help but wonder if the bones belong to a housekeeper and her children who went missing from the home ten years earlier. Then she receives a frantic phone call from a local sheriff informing her that Taylor Hall, a fourteen-year-old has gone missing from his family’s home!
Whew! Nikki has a lot on her plate in this book as she investigates the current case and wonders if it could in any way be connected to the cold case she is also investigating. This book had me turning the pages at warp speed. I was fully invested in the mystery and the investigative work. As with the other books in the series, I enjoyed getting glimpses into Nikki’s private life as well which I always love. It has been wonderful reading the character development of Nikki, her daughter and those in their lives over the course of this series. I enjoy how the author balances Nikki’s home and professional lives.
As with the other books in this series, Little Child Gone is brimming with tension, dread, suspense, and danger. It also has a nice number of twists and turns as well. Although this book is the 10th book in the series, it can easily be read as a stand-alone. Having said that, this is such a fantastic series that I recommend picking it up and reading it from the very beginning!
Wonderfully written, well thought out, perfectly plotted and mysterious!!!!!
Highly recommend!
