Be careful what you go looking for...

Teacher Emily Swanson made a terrible mistake that ended in tragedy. Now she's come to London, where she's desperate to pick up the pieces and start again. But a missing nurse is about to offer her a chance at redemption...

Her name is Alina and she used to live in Emily's new home. Some say she ran away from her violent husband. Others believe he killed her. Either way, she's been missing for months and no one is looking for her.

No one except Emily.

Because finding Alina could help right the wrongs of Emily's past. All she needs to do is follow the clues...

But what Emily doesn't know is that Alina had a deadly secret - one about the care foundation where she worked. And the closer Emily gets to uncovering the truth, the closer she gets to terrible danger.

Next To Disappear introduces private investigator in the making Emily Swanson. Mystery and suspense fans will love this twist-filled new series from M. J. Richards.
