Ten years ago, fifteen-year-old Scarlett Crosby was held captive in a terrifying ordeal with a girl named Della. Scarlett escaped, their predator was killed, and Della simply vanished. Detective Kevin Dawson always wondered if Della even existed.

A decade later, Scarlett is a successful artist. As hard as she tries to move on, the mysterious Della remains her inescapable obsession.

Critic reviews

“A masterpiece of the Suspense/Thriller genre, Another Girl Lost by experienced and talented novelist Mary Burton is a simply riveting read from cover to cover. Original, compelling, expertly crafted, and highly recommended…”—Midwest Book Review

Bad narration

The female narrator was very monotone, not good at all. The story itself was predictable and eventually boring. I’m giving the overall a third star because I know Burton can do better than this

Couldn’t “put it down”

This was a great book! I couldn’t stop listening, finished it quickly! I highly recommend

Slow

I thought the narration was fine. However the book was very slow and the characters were hard to like overall. I did not like the ending regarding Margo. Not my favorite.

Great Story but I would have been better with the explicit sexual sections.

I enjoy this story very much. I almost stopped several times when it became more sexually explicit parts.

interactions

enjoyed interactions of characters. will look for more from this author. good plot and suspense
