The Forgotten Girls
The body of an unidentified woman has been discovered in a remote forest. A large, unique scar on one side of her face should make the identification easy, but nobody has reported her missing. Louise Rick, the new commander of the Missing Persons Department, waits four long days before pulling off a risky move: Releasing a photo of the victim to the media, jeopardizing the integrity of the investigation in hopes of finding anyone who knew her. The gamble pays off when a woman recognizes the victim as Lisemette, a child she cared for in the state mental institution many years ago. Lisemette was a "forgotten girl", abandoned by her family and left behind in the institution.
But Louise soon discovers something even more disturbing: Lisemette had a twin, and both girls were issued death certificates more than 30 years ago. Louise's investigation takes a surprising when it brings her closer to her childhood home. And as she uncovers more crimes that were committed - and hidden - in the forest, she is forced to confront a terrible link to her own past that has been carefully concealed.
Set against a moody and atmospheric landscape, The Forgotten Girls is twisty, suspenseful, emotionally intense novel that secures Sara Blaedel's place in the pantheon of great thriller writers.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 339
Three months after four-year-old Holly Gebhardt was kidnapped, she was inexplicably returned to the same park from which she’d vanished...with no memory of the ordeal. Though a local handyman was convicted, suspicion also fell on his friend - Holly’s mother, Cecily. The troubling doubts about her involvement shattered the family, forever driving a wedge between mother and daughter. Twenty years later, another girl goes missing under eerily similar circumstances. It’s just the latest in a series of kidnappings that Detective Jason Guidry thinks Holly can help solve.

But the little girl’s pretty yellow dress can’t quite hide the ugly scar on her chest. Her latest customer, a bearded stranger, drains his cup and heads to his car, his mind on a boat he's restoring at a nearby lake. The stranger understands more about the scar than he wants to admit. And the beat-up bread truck careening around the corner with its radio blaring is about to change the trajectory of both their lives.

An intense psychological thriller for fans of I Am Watching You, The Luckiest Girl Alive, and All the Missing Girls. Two missing girls. Thirteen years apart. Olivia Shaw has been missing since last Tuesday. She was last seen outside the entrance of her elementary school in Hunts Point wearing a white spring jacket, blue jeans, and pink boots. I force myself to look at the face in the photo, into her slightly smudged features, and I can't bring myself to move. Olivia Shaw could be my mirror image, rewound to 13 years ago.

Then there was that other sound - the ominous thump before all went quiet. In the morning, her mother was gone. The official story was that she left. Her loving, devoted mother! That hadn’t sat any better at the time than it did when Sloane moved out at 18, anxious to leave her Texas hometown in search of anywhere else.

Story4 out of 5 stars 180
Alan Gregory is a clinical psychologist with a thriving practice in Boulder, Colorado. His life begins to unravel when one of his female patients is found in an apparent suicide and the local paper begins printing accusations from an unnamed source of sexual impropriety between the woman and Dr. Gregory. He launches a psychological and personal quest for the truth that rapidly intensifies when more of his patients die untimely deaths, and Gregory suspects not only that the deaths are related but that another one of his patients may be somehow involved. Lacking facts but roused by suspicion and troubled by seemingly random acts of terror around him, Gregory starts to fear for the safety of the people he loves. The question of the inviolability of confidential disclosures made to Gregory by his patients - privileged information - becomes crucial as the psychologist pursues an unsettling romance with Lauren Crowder, a lovely deputy district attorney investigating one of the deaths. Bound to silence, Gregory follows the psychological tracks of someone he fears may be a cunning and disturbed killer, while turning to his enigmatic but supportive partner, Diane Estevez, for counsel, and to his tart-tongued female urologist neighbor for support. The sinister, surprising drama unfolds against Boulder's Rocky Mountain backdrop, in the arresting natural beauty of Aspen, and in the midst of a baroque Halloween costume party in downtown Boulder. Finally, in a lonely mountain lodge enshrouded in menace, the story comes to its breathtaking climax.

Any additional comments?
OK, so this book was creepy, twisty and turny and hard to put down! I love a good thriller and THE FORGOTTEN GIRLS had all elements that make for a great read...a great mystery, compelling characters that have mysteries of their own, a story that is perfectly plotted and unpredictable and just enough creepy to keep me uneasy the whole time! What a GREAT book and one I recommend highly to lovers of great thriller/mystery mixes!!! 4.5 stars

The way names are pronounced
This is a good story but it is really irritating that names of people and places are pronounced completely wrong. When doing an English translation the narrator should be instructed in how to pronounce the names. It is so bad that it becomes a distraction when listening

A really good listen but heartrending content.
A really good listen but heartrending content which I would imagine has more reality than fiction with respect to past abused of the mentally individuals who have no protection against heartless caregivers.

Bad Casting/Direction
The narrator is a good enough performer, but she was the wrong choice for this book. Accents from the American South and Midwest were distracting in a book set in Denmark.

Weird accents!
This is a translated book from Danish, so Im confused why the narrator thought Irish and American Southern accents was a good idea. The narrator who does Harry Potter managed to make many characters sound distinctive without giving them accents in another language.

Oh so good!!!
What a great story with unexpected twists that I absolutely could not have predicted. Hoping there’s a follow up to this because I did feel like some details could use some closure, but if not, we can’t always have it tied up in a neat box and it was still a great story. Suspenseful but didn’t leave it on the cliffhanger for too long to lose interest. The author really captured the eccentric nature of humans with the character complexities. I don’t usually listen to a book more than once but this one I might so I can really capture the characters more.
The narrator was incredible & adjusted voice from time to time for different in such a fluid way that it didn’t even sound like the same person but didn’t sound choppy either.
