The #1 New York Times bestselling author and Queen of Suspense launched her career with this classic thriller following a woman whose past holds a terrible secret.

Where Are The Children? explores the life of Nancy Harmon, who appears to have finally found happiness with a new home, a loving husband, and two beautiful children. Yet, this is not the first time Nancy has had such a picture-perfect life.

Seven years ago, Nancy fled a volatile marriage and mourned the devastating loss of her first two children. Attempting to start anew, she left behind the accusations, the newspaper stories, and the burden of blame. However, she is mistaken in believing the past is truly behind her.

There is someone who has not forgotten and who is resolute in dragging Nancy back into her nightmare. One fateful cold morning, Nancy leaves her children to play outside. Upon returning, she is struck with the horror that they have vanished.

With mounting dread, Nancy realises the nightmare has begun once more...
