Description

By the author of 'Fred and Edie', 'Watch Me Disappear' is a subtly written psychological chiller about desire both innocent and warped. It tells the story of Tina Humber and a moment of panic about her 10-year-old daughter which triggers the memory of her childhood friend who went missing at the same age.
