Stolen Lives

Thank you netgalley for my copy of Stolen Lives.

In truth, I had to familiarise myself with the Ninos robados” (stolen children scandal) having previously not known about it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was very thought provoking and kept me interested the entire time.

Danny Sanchez is now working as a free-lance journalist. When the body of a young woman is found, he is there. The woman is identified as Teresa del Hoyo and she's been missing for a week. The police mark it up as she previously had a drug problem, although she's been clean for well over a year ... and she's run off before.

What Danny finds is that she has been looking into questionable events dating back to the Spanish Civil War. She had two partners in this ... one is missing ... one is dead.

What did they discover? And who did she tell?

Following her footsteps and carrying on her investigation leads Danny to secrets of 50 years ago .... and someone will kill to keep those secrets from seeing the light of day.

This is an intriguing well written thriller, highly suspenseful, with a story premise that kept me glued to the pages until the very end. The characters are solid.

Many thanks to the author / Sapere Books / Netgalley for the advanced digital copy of this thriller. Opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Riveting story about newspaper reporter, Danny in Spain. He's investigating a grisly murder of a young women actiivist. Beginning of story starts during Franco period and carries forward. It's a fast paced detective story I could not put down.
