About this deal

Cara Hunter’s debut novel presents us with a case that could have been ripped from last night’s headlines. Cara Hunter’s style of timelines going both backwards and forwards is very clearly written and slowly reveals what led up to the event whilst progressing the Police investigation. Cara Hunter exhibits great ability to plot so many captivating threads that the reader is constantly kept guessing right to the end. DI Fawley and his cohorts are bound together by the belief that the answers to Daisy’s disappearance lie close to home, within the family and the local neighbourhood.

With DI Fawley and he’s team starting to investigate its instantly apparent that doubt surrounds both parents Sharon and Barry’s accountability, they soon appear to be the prime suspects. Eso no me gustó, y como el libro está atiborrado de situaciones así, obviamente me sentí muy insatisfecho porque ni los personajes, ni el argumento fluyeron con naturalidad; y una historia sin naturalidad claramente no es interesante porque no nos sorprenderá. Detective Inspector Adam Fawley is the lead on the investigation, which is one of the book’s superlatives.The story was easy to read although I became very irritated by the constant backwards and forwards through time which didn’t always have much logic and it did not arise naturally through the storytelling.

I love giving my readers different ways to explore the story and I'm such a geek that I do all my artwork myself. Daisy is painted as a exceedingly bright child, who feels like a fish out of water with her more intellectually pedestrian family. There are many twists in this book, and they all are happening based on dumn luck or weird circumstances. A whodunit but one that deals with some difficult issues that will have you guessing right up to the end.There are a lot of good books out there, but few that make me want to stand up and applaud the author. All-too-often DI Adam Fawley’s gut reaction is right, too: it’s someone the child knows behind the disappearance, a parent, a neighbour. Por tanto, las autoridades intentarán hacer su mejor esfuerzo para encontrarla, ya que parece que se la hubiera tragado la tierra. Close to Home is not separated with the usual chapters thus emphasising the continuously unfolding developments and a feeling of being privy to all of the thoughts of the investigating CID from the get-go. tantas, pero tantas situaciones sin sentido me hicieron tener permanentemente en mi mente la palabra «ilógico».
