After reading Never Coming Back in the summer of 2014 I became instantly hooked to Tim Weaver's missing persons investigator, David Raker. I proceeded to read the previous three books (Never Coming Back being the fourth in the series) and have since reviewed some of Raker's ventures (see here). However, for some reason it has taken me eight months to pick up this book after finishing Vanished (the third in the series, and potentially my favourite). But after coming to my senses, trying desperately to remember what happened in Never Coming Back, I fell back into place with Weaver's writing.

I was lucky enough to win this books in one of Goodreads' giveaways back in May. I was intrigued by the synopsis, as the book centres around two characters, a mother and a daughter, who leave their life behind to join a cult in the Yorkshire moors. I have a kind of guilty pleasure for films about cults, I won't name names because that could be a spoiler for the film, but there's always been something about them that intrigues me.

I don't really recall when I first heard about this book, I just remember thinking instantly that if I found it, I'd have to buy it. These thoughts transpired from Keegan's devastating reality, but also because of the titular article, which resonated with me.
