Synopsis

'I can't afford to come back from the dead.' Annabelle has had many names in her life - Sally, Cindy, Lucille. Though her father moved her from city to city from the age of ten, changing names, houses, careers and histories every few months, Annabelle never knew what they were running from. Now in her thirties, with both parents dead, she's settled in Boston. But old habits die hard and she still looks over her shoulder when she leaves her apartment, still blends in with the crowd on the subway. Then at the Boston State Mental Hospital a multiple grave is discovered. Six young girls left to die in an underground chamber decades ago, while their captor looked on. When her original name appears in the paper, wrongly identifying her as one of the dead girls, Annabelle finally knows. This was the work of the monster her father fled from. But the killer is still on the loose. And he's looked for her for a very long time. Bobby Dodge has been haunted by the Catherine Gagnon case for years. It nearly cost him his job and his sanity. As a child, Catherine was also held prisoner underground, like the victims in this latest case. But Catherine's captor was in prison when these girls were taken. Yet the similarities are too numerous to be just coincidence...

Book Overview: HIDE has brought Lisa to a whole new level - hitting the Sunday Times Top 10. GONE, published in 2006, was Lisa Gardner's highest ever hardback sale, proving that she's one of crime-writing's fastest rising stars. Lisa's novels are tough, uncompromising and ultimately chilling. Lisa's last three books have steadily raised her sales and her profile - this is the book to take her right to the top. 'An impressive air of gathering menace...not a book you'd want to read in a dimly lit place.' Guardian 'A fine novel full of twists.' The Independent on Sunday.

Media Reviews
