The Missing Ones by Patricia Gibney Book Summary

The hole they dug was not deep. A white flour bag encased the little body. Three small faces watched from the window, eyes black with terror. 
The child in the middle spoke without turning his head. ‘I wonder which one of us will be next?’
When a woman’s body is discovered in a cathedral and hours later a young man is found hanging from a tree outside his home, Detective Lottie Parker is called in to lead the investigation.  Both bodies have the same distinctive tattoo clumsily inscribed on their legs.  It’s clear the pair are connected, but how? 
The trail leads Lottie to St Angela’s, a former children’s home, with a dark connection to her own family history.  Suddenly the case just got personal. 
As Lottie begins to link the current victims to unsolved murders decades old, two teenage boys go missing.  She must close in on the killer before they strike again, but in doing so is she putting her own children in terrifying danger? 
Lottie is about to come face to face with a twisted soul who has a very warped idea of justice. 
Fans of Rachel Abbott, Karin Slaughter and Robert Dugoni will be gripped by this page-turning serial killer thriller, guaranteed to keep you reading late into the night.

Liked. This book is interested

Missing ones. Great story I read it in 1 day going to get Book 2

Amazing series. Kept me questioning till the end!!!

Awesome book. This was an awesome read, so many twists and turns I couldn’t put it away

Much better books. I did not like this book much at all. Lottie, the main character is a bully and she seemed to have so many problems that interfered in the story, at least for me. There were many times the book just dragged on. There were also numerous mistakes in the procedures from the police. Sorry, but I doubt I will read this author again.

I’m confused. It doesn’t really make any sense and its all over the place

Like this book. Liked

Marsha20. I read this book and loved it, sorry it so long to finish it but can't wait to start the others. Trying new authors. All your books are on my iPad, I live in USA. Keep writing, and I'll keep reading.

Awesome book!. I could not put this book down! I am excited to read the next book about Detective Lottie Parker.

The Missing Ones. Such a sad book. They mystery is solved she just keeps going no matter what till she finds out what’s happens to everyone.

The Missing Ones. Good. Intriguing . Was interested until the end. Nice twist to the ending.

Great read!!. Really gripping story, one of those books you can't put down!

Great novel. Couldn't put this down, a great read for crime thriller fans

The Missing Ones.. Phenomenal debut novel, hooked from the very first page until the last. Endearing characters, solid well written plot. This author is up there with the best of Crime fiction writers. Roll on book two.

Dark secrets. Really enjoyed getting to know the characters in The Missing ones.. very clever plot and terrible consequences.. but had to keep reading! An excellent book!

Gripping. Found the first couple of chapters a bit stilted but the rest of the book is superb. Emotional, gritty and real. Really became attached to DI Parker and it's been a very good read. On to the second book now.

Loved it. What a great read could not put it down

The Missing Ones. Fantastic page turner ! Probably the best book I've read in a while. Looking forward very much to the second in the series.

Good read. I thought this was a great book. Sad really but kept me hooked.

The missing Ones. Brilliant debut novel. Well worth a read.

The missing one. Great book - well written and enthralling

Fabulous ...gripping. Couldn't put it down, gripping - can't wait for the next one to come out

A good read. It’s a good read and I’ve just purchased the second book. Looking forward to it ☺️

Great read. This is my second book and again totally hooked. I love reading but can’t seem to put these books down, very addictive.

Amazing. I read this in 3 days as soon as I had a spare minute, heart wrenching and well written. Yes it was fiction but a homage to the real missing ones

Excellent. A real page turner already I love this author and. And can't wait to read book two I feel another addiction coming on for Lottie&her team beautifully written and at a easy fast flowing pace loved it thank you.

The Missing Ones. Brilliant! A truly gripping tale and believable characters. I'm pleased that I'll be able to follow Lottie in more of her cases! Already pre-ordered Book 2. Thank you and don't stop at Book 2!!

The missing ones. Absolutely riveting read. Couldn't put it down from start to finish. The author describes the characters in a way you can actually visualise them. The pace of the story speeds up page by page. Must say this book would make a corking film. Can't wait to read the Stolen Ones, the second Lottie Parker Novel.

The Missing ones. Fantastic! Totally gripping!

Muddled. I enjoyed reading this book.But,I don’t like books that move backwards and forwards too much.

Missing ones. Fantastic book very intense very emotional at times ,there are places where you know what your about to read but you don't want to but have to ,if you understand very good ,I hope the next book is as good

Just wow!. I'm a bit of a reluctant reader (not out of choice!) but this gripped me from the first page and I couldn't put it down! Absolutely brilliant!

All about Lottie Parker. I read her 3rd book before I read this one. Which was probably a mistake. I now will read her second one. A lot of crime novels are about a man trying to solve the mystery which I do not have a problem with. However the character of Lottie Parker is irresistible she is every bit as interesting as the story. A great read and highly recommended.

Gripping, well written and vivid characters! Loved it.. Gripping, well written and vivid characters! Loved it.

The Missing Ones. An excellent crime thriller. Believable and fast paced. Well and truly hard to put down. Will look for more from this author. Hope she writes a lot more.

Hard to put down. Enjoyed this even though the topic was grim! I liked how the present & past was weaved together, fleshing out the characters, lots of twists & turns as Detective Lottie races to the catch the villains

The Missing Ones. I loved this novel. The plot engaged me and kept moving well. I found the content topical and frightening. I enjoyed the strength and weakness of Lottie and the sexual tension between her and Boyd. I couldn't put it down. This is a great read providing the reader with a lovely distraction from a busy life. I can't wait for the next edition in the Lottie Parker series. Thank you. Helen - Australia.

The Missing Ones. A really great read! It keeps you guessing until the end. Would recommend this book.

A really great debut. I will definitely look for more by this author. A clever ending & not one you see coming

Haunting tale that you can't put down. A haunting tale you can't put down until finished, and one that lingers in your mind for days. Will watch out for more from this author.

Definitely worth reading. I thoroughly enjoyed this book from many perspectives.

The Missing Ones. Gripping, page turning read all the way, with a real jolt at the end. This book is a "must read" and I can't wait for her second novel in the series to be released

The missing ones. Amazing book, couldn't stop reading!!!

Brilliant. I loved this book ... full of emotion and twists... I have preordered The Stolen Girls and can't wait to read it.

The Missing Ones. Absolutely brilliant !! Beautifully written, great story, could not put it down ! Going to start the next book in the series immediately!!

The Missing Ones. Spellbinding, hooked after the first page. Thoroughly wonderful, if a little dark. Already downloaded book two.

A great read. I'm an avid reader, and really enjoyed this book. I felt it kept drawing me back, needing to know what happens next. I felt for the poor children who had been abused as if they were real.

The Missing Ones - Patricia Gibney. Many have changed their names since that time in the orphanage. Children who witnessed the abuse and murder, it’s now decades later and some have returned looking for answers, but others are found dead. Inspector Lottie (named after Charlotte Bronte:) is searching for a killer and the truth about the orphanage. A long story that plays out with a lot of characters in a country town in Ireland. Keeps the Reader enthralled the whole way. It’s a very good story, 4/5

Bewildered. This story was so confusing all over the place

Missing Ones. Great book! Loved it, looking forward to the next one in the series, five stars!

The Missing Ones.. I liked it alot. I’m not catholic so it was a bit hard to get into the headspace but it did a good job of church scandal. Pedo priests , the cycle of abuse goes on.

A true thriller!. This fast paced book was far from a disappointment! Twists and turns and throwbacks, I devoured this book!

Tell Nobody. I love this book! I have now read most of the books except for final betrayal. in the past I have just given five stars with no reviews but I want you to know how exceptionally well written they are. The settings, storyline and characters kept me up reading at night. I found myself stealing pages all day st different times. Patricia presents her characters with all their flaws and you still feel glad you got to know them.
