    About this audiobook

    A recent abduction becomes an unexpected link to a decades-long spree of unspeakable crimes.

    Eight-year-old Brooklyn Mercer has gone missing. And as accustomed as FBI agents Eliza Sterling and Brandon Eddison are to such harrowing cases, this one has struck a nerve. It marks the anniversary of the disappearance of Eddison’s own little sister. Disturbing, too, is the girl’s resemblance to Eliza—so uncanny they could be mother and daughter.

    With Eddison’s unsettled past rising again with rage and pain, Eliza is determined to solve this case at any cost. But the closer she looks, the more reluctant she is to divulge to her increasingly shaken partner what she finds. Brooklyn isn’t the only girl of her exact description to go missing. She’s just the latest in a frightening pattern going back decades in cities throughout the entire country.

    In a race against time, Eliza’s determined to bring Brooklyn home and somehow find the link to the cold case that has haunted Eddison—and the entire Crimes Against Children team—since its inception.

      This is not as suspenseful or good as the first book.....

      After listening to the first and the last books this was no comparison in stories. I thought it was way too predictable and had a very rushed and boring ending.
      Actually I cannot recommend this as a series.

      I liked the plot but did not like one of the main characters and the excuse for his violence. No one should stay with a person who is that out of controll.
    • 5/5
      I recommend this series to anyone who wants a very good read!
    • 5/5
      I love it! These series I have read in months must say it is not for the faint of heart. This last book gives you the closer that is needed and gives you the hope that in time you will be able to adjust to things not forget.
    • 4/5
      It was pretty good. I wanted a little more of a twist, though. Felt a little cookie-cutter.

      ספר רביעי ואחרון בסדרת the collector
      למרות האכזבה מהספר הקודם הייתי חייבת לסיים את הסדרה , לפחות פה לא באתי עם ציפיות ??‍♀️

      סה"כ הספר בסדר אבל עדיין היו רגעים מגוחכים לצד רגעים מרגשים ,
      הספר נתן מעין סגירת מעגל לכל הדמויות בסדרה.

      לסיכום של הסדרה -
      מדובר לדעתי במתח "קליל" יש בסדרה גם קצת רומנטיקה,
      אם הסדרה תתורגם, לדעתי הרבה יאהבו ❤️
      *ואני אומרת קליל בזהירות כי יש בסדרה המון טריגרים ותיאורים קשים אבל הסוף של כל ספר הוא דיי ורוד.

    • 2/5
      I couldn’t make it through this one. ‘The Butterfly Garden’ was phenomenal, but IMO, each book thereafter got weaker than the last. I didn’t make it through this one.
      For the most part, I didn’t like that it had so much “filler” conversations between the characters in it.
