Best missing person / cold case sort of books?

[Flowersandfrogs]

Would love to hear your recommendations

Fiction or non-fiction?

For fiction I really enjoyed Tim Weaver’s David Raker series. They’re about a private detective who looks into cold cases: typically the police will have run out of leads, but he combs through the tiniest details of people’s lives, and finds the one detail they missed. They can get a bit convoluted, I would recommend though.

I really enjoyed And The Sea Will Tell by Vincent Bugliosi

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

T R Ragan
It's a trilogy where the children of the protagonist are kidnapped.
Can't remember the full title but one book is called Rage.
Real page turner.

I loved Tell No One by Harlen Coben and No Time For Goodbye by Linwood Barclay. Both of them had me gripped at what could possibly have happened to the missing people.

Still Missing by Beth Gutcheon. Publushed by Persephone. It's set in the 1980s iirc before social media, or mass ownership of mobile phones.

No Time to say Goodbye - superb book
