An utterly gripping crime thriller.

She wakes surrounded by an inky black darkness and can barely breathe. A sack is covering her head, and her hands are tied behind her back. She desperately tries to struggle free as she hears footsteps walking toward her. She silently starts to cry as a chilling voice whispers “It’s time to pay for what you did…”

When Detective Amanda Steele is called to the murder scene of a young gas station clerk just before dawn, she assumes it must be a robbery gone tragically wrong. But when she discovers nothing has been stolen, she knows the motive must be far more personal.

Watching the security footage, Amanda is shocked to witness the cold-blooded killer not only shoot the clerk dead but abduct a customer. And her heart stops when she recognizes the customer as her former colleague, Katherine Graves. As Amanda breaks the news to Katherine’s heartbroken Aunt May, she vows to do whatever it takes to bring her niece home alive.

Desperate for a lead, Amanda and her partner, Trent, search Katherine’s home. Soon, they discover that despite no longer being with the police department, Katherine has a long list of very dangerous enemies. Enemies who have been sending her anonymous letters promising revenge.

The more Amanda digs into Katherine’s past, the longer her list of suspects becomes. But when May is sent a ransom demand and a picture of Katherine close to death, Amanda knows time is running out. With only hours left to find Katherine alive, Amanda is prepared to risk everything to keep her promise to May, even her own life…

Readers love the Missing Before Daylight:

“When I start reading a book written by Carolyn the world around me starts to disappear… Missing Before Daylight has many twists and turns that kept me racing to the end to find out everything.”

Avid Reader

“An exciting, suspenseful, intriguing, tense mystery, that kept me unable to put the book down, as this was a fantastic thriller. From the start, you become engrossed into the story.”

The Reading Café

“This book had me almost biting my nails – I’m not a nail biter, so it was pretty intense!”

BookishLaurenH

“I was pulled into this story immediately in the prologue… A thrilling compelling read indeed, with plenty of unanticipated twists and turns.”

Yet Another Blogging Mummy!

“A fast-paced, twisty storyline… I found extremely hard to put down, and I would happily recommend it to all.”

Mags Louise the Bookworm

“We are taken on a wild ride as the team investigates this crime…. Police procedural novels do not get any better than this series. I was pulled into this story from the first chapter, and I was not going to be satisfied until I finished reading it. Sleep is not necessary when there is a mystery to be solved. This is another winner in the Amanda Steele series.”

Escape to the World of Books

“The book is written in the third person to show us the perspectives of the detectives, the victims and the perpetrators. The chapters are quite short so the pace of the plot rattles along speedily. Both of these features build the tension… Missing Before Daylight is an entertaining crime thriller and police procedural.”

Loopy Lou Laura

“I always look forward to hunting down the crooks and solving the crimes with Amanda and Trent. This latest one threw me some curveballs.”
