The Missing is two stories in one that eventually converge, told in alternating chapters. As a child, Sarah Finch's brother Charlie disappears. The body is never found, and the loss of Charlie destroys her family, particularly her mother. Now an adult working as a school teacher, Sarah becomes involved in another missing persons case when she finds the body of one of her students.

The Missing starts out a bit slowly, but the pace picks up considerably in the second half. Sarah can be annoying at times. However, there are enough twists and turns to keep the reader engaged.
