Story
No electricity, no family, no connection to the outside world. For eight years, Cooper and his young daughter, Finch, have lived in isolation in a remote cabin in the northern Appalachian woods. And that's exactly the way Cooper wants it, because he's got a lot to hide. Finch has been raised on the books filling the cabin’s shelves and the beautiful but brutal code of life in the wilderness. But she’s starting to push back against the sheltered life Cooper has created for her - and he’s still haunted by the painful truth of what it took to get them there.

The enchanted place is an ancient stone prison, viewed through the eyes of a death row inmate who finds escape in his books and in re-imagining life around him, weaving a fantastical story of the people he observes and the world he inhabits. Fearful and reclusive, he senses what others cannot. Though bars confine him every minute of every day, he marries visions of golden horses running beneath the prison, heat flowing like molten metal from their backs with the devastating violence of prison life.

With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally. Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year. Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever.

Publisher's summary
A haunting, richly atmospheric, and deeply suspenseful novel from the acclaimed author of The Enchanted about an investigator who must use her unique insights to find a missing little girl.
"Where are you, Madison Culver? Flying with the angels, a silver speck on a wing? Are you dreaming, buried under snow? Or is it possible you are still alive?"
Three years ago, Madison Culver disappeared when her family was choosing a Christmas tree in Oregon's Skookum National Forest. She would be eight years old now - if she has survived. Desperate to find their beloved daughter, certain someone took her, the Culvers turn to Naomi, a private investigator with an uncanny talent for locating the lost and missing. Known to the police and a select group of parents as "the Child Finder", Naomi is their last hope.
Naomi's methodical search takes her deep into the icy, mysterious forest in the Pacific Northwest and into her own fragmented past. She understands children like Madison because once upon a time, she was a lost girl, too.
As Naomi relentlessly pursues and slowly uncovers the truth behind Madison's disappearance, shards of a dark dream pierce the defenses that have protected her, reminding her of a terrible loss she feels but cannot remember. If she finds Madison, will Naomi ultimately unlock the secrets of her own life?
Told in the alternating voices of Naomi and a deeply imaginative child, The Child Finder is a breathtaking, exquisitely rendered literary listen about redemption, the line between reality and memories and dreams, and the human capacity to survive.

I thought handsome, charming Blake would be the perfect fit for my quiet and sweet-natured friend Melanie. Widowed far too young, she deserved a second chance at love. So, when he proposed so soon after I set them up on a date, I convinced myself that the timing was just right. But I should have stopped it. I tried to ignore Blake’s controlling behavior. It started small; telling her not to have a glass of champagne to celebrate their engagement, putting cameras up around her house for “safety”. But Mel seemed so happy and in love, I couldn’t bring myself to share my creeping doubts.

Kept asking questions
While the story’s premise is interesting, there were what seemed to me to be obvious questions. A recurring one was how a 5 yr old had such advanced powers of deduction & an advanced vocabulary while being in captivity for several years.
The main character’s final words of wisdom were pedestrian to the point of silliness and the author’s lead-in to her next book was a bit too obvious.
The value of a book like this for me is heightened awareness of these missing & exploited kids. For that, Denfeld is to be commended.

This story grabs you from the beginning and holds you tight until the last word. You feel as though you are in the story and can see what the characters see and smell the smells that are so vividly articulated. While the story moves into a dark place that is unspeakable, you can’t put it down.

Dark But Captivating
As much as this story is hard to read at moments, it's truly a beautiful take on the secret community of the sexually and physically abused children. Rene really helped someone like myself who has been fortunate not been through a horrid situation like being captured and abused, understand how a young child mentally and physically survives. Also, instead of making out the capturers as monsters, you understand the truth behind sexual and physical abuse to, especially children, which is the fact that the abuser went through the same experience as a child. The cycle merely repeats itself. Which is so sad and so true.
Wonderfully written and I would suggest to anyone who can stomach this kind of story.

Absolutely incredible!
Such a gorgeously written tale of a very overdone topic. The prose is amazing, the characters are interesting and the abuse scenes are cloaked as to not be gratuitous - yet we know what horror is happening. This book is - just wow.

Powerful
Emotional story of child abduction. Although there is nothing graphic, it's tough to read. The writing is excellent, and dispute a few slow spots, it's almost a thriller as "the child finder" gets closer to locating the missing child she's searching for. The last chapter had me on the edge of my seat, literally. And the ending was perfect, optimistic and hopeful. The narration was just ok.
