V: Vanished (2022 A-Z)
Vanished
“They ain’t allowed to let him go off with any stranger. Please find him, bring him back,” Mrs. Nair sniffles, fresh tears flowing again.
Mr. Nair puts a hand on her shoulder.
“So, Mrs. Nair, the school has both of you as authorized …”
“Just me,” Mr. Nair interrupts. “We … uh, the divorce is coming through. She can have him only on weekends, so …”
Mrs. Nair lowers her eyes.
That night, she hands over an ice cream to her son engrossed in video games. “Just a few more days kiddo, and then you can stay with me forever.”
Vanished by Danielle Steele is a classic whodunit family drama – complete with nerve wracking twists, betrayals, race against time and more. Several in my generation would have grown up reading these or the Sidney Sheldon thrillers – often unputdownable. These are books that can easily get you hooked to reading.
Fiction reads – be they whodunits, family drama-based thrillers, mystery, suspense, crime, action on legal, medical, or whichever context are always a guilty pleasure. While I enjoy a fair share of all genres these days, these continue to be my first love, mostly always quick reads and there’s too many good authors to be named. My Goodreads page lists a lot more recommendations (along with the anthologies I got published in!) Have a look!
This had always been on my list to be read since my student days , but somehow got missed😐 . Will be reading it very soon . Thanks Deepa for the review😇😇😇
Give it a shot! It’s a book written quite well, the suspense and drama keeps you in a strong hold!
I have read a couple of Danielle Steele bools long back….
Both family stories I think
Yes, mostly family dramas and quite interesting with twists and turns!
Danielle Steel is one of my favorite authors.
That’s gripping. What would have happened to the kid? – u left the premise at a good juncture 🙂 i feel i will enjoy this book
My favorite genre too! The way you ended it, I really want to know if the son got to stay with her.
Superb Fiction
Nice
So the mother is the one who abducted the son and she’s hiding him out and giving him ice cream. I never read those books but I listen to old time radio detective dramas.
