‘I was gripped by When She Was Gone, I couldn’t bear being away from it. The characterisation is top-notch: such interesting, flawed, nuanced people. And the plotting is excellent – I was guessing and guessing and getting it wrong. I absolutely LOVED this book.’ Marian Keyes
‘I loved the premise before I even opened the book, and from then on, I was hooked. Sharp, compelling and clever, Sara's story of rich people behaving badly had me captivated until the final pages. Put it on your to-read list!’ Ali Lowe, author of The Trivia Night
‘With Australia’s rugged southwest as the perfect backdrop, Sara Foster gives us a searing tale of the dangers of capitalist greed and misogynistic power play, all wrapped up in what I think might just be the most propulsive thriller of the year. It’s pure genius to write a page turner this stunning. I challenge anyone to put it down once you’ve read the first page.’ Tess Woods, author of The Venice Hotel
‘Rose Campbell, a former London cop, knows a lot about violence and how it can tear us apart. When Rose’s estranged daughter goes missing in Western Australia – with two children from the rich family she is nannying for – Rose will have to dig deep to uncover what really happened. This assured, utterly absorbing novel will have you up late into the night, still turning pages. Sara Foster sensitively and persuasively renders both the banality and unique horror of violence against women and asks, how far would you be willing to go to save someone you love? This was an absolute highlight of my reading year.’ Hayley Scrivenor, internationally best-selling author of Dirt Town and Girl Falling
‘Sara Foster has a unique ability to combine complicated, vulnerable, fascinating characters with riveting plots, and she excels at this in When She Was Gone. It's a thrilling race-against-the-clock mystery about the disappearance of two children and their nanny – but it turns out that those investigating the case have secrets they'd rather keep hidden too. Masterfully told, the stakes are high in this emotionally gripping and utterly unforgettable story. Don't plan on getting anything else done once you start reading!’ Natasha Lester
‘I was hooked from the first chapter: the characters were compelling, the pace was perfect and the ending was satisfying, with a few twists I didn't see coming. It's a read-in-one-gulp story (my favourite kind) that kept me guessing until the end.’ Kayte Nunn
‘A thoroughly engaging novel, brimming with suspense. Foster writes with a unique compassion, exploring all sides of a terrible crime through complex, nuanced characters – her writing is intelligent and filled with heart. One of my favourite authors!’ Rae Cairns, bestselling author of The Good Mother and Dying to Know
‘When She Was Gone is a masterclass of suspense, an edge-of-your-seat story that kept me up all night.’ Dervla McTiernan
‘A chilling family saga about power, privilege and revenge. Sara Foster at her spine-tingling best.’ Tim Ayliffe, author of Killer Traitor Spy and The Enemy Within
