Description

"What were you running from, then?" she had asked.

"Monsters," was all that Naomi could remember.

Naomi Cotter has been running all her life. But now she has a purpose. She finds missing children. When the police have stopped searching, and the press have moved on, Naomi is the one person parents can turn to.

Somewhere out in the woods, the Snow Child is waiting. She doesn't know who she is any more and her past life seems like a dream. But she is laying a trail so that someone out there can find her . . .

Rene Denfeld has a gift for shining bright light in dark places. The Child Finder is a gorgeous, haunting gem of a novel. Raw and real yet wrapped in a fairy tale, as lovely and as chilling as the snow

A darkly luminous story of resilience and the deeply human instinct for survival, for love. Blending the magical thinking of childhood, of fairy tales, dreams, memories and nightmares, The Child Finder is a terrifying and ultimately uplifting novel that demands to be consumed and then once inside you - lingers...
