Like The French Girl, this manages to be both uncannily creepy and grounded in the true horror of human evil.
The Observer

Elliott follows her well-reviewed debut, The French Girl, with an equally atmospheric novel that keeps the reader intrigued and off-balance all the way through.
Booklist

This compelling mystery left me on the edge of my seat... If you liked the author's debut work The French Girl, you will love The Missing Years.
Tulsa Book Review

With its growing atmosphere of dread and its moody environs, The Missing Years begins with a Gothic hint that rapidly segues into a suspenseful thriller with a breathless twist of a dnouement.
