I really empathized for Megan. I think as a mother, I would always be looking for my child, no matter how long time has passed, but when it could destroy your family that is still with you, it becomes a matter of choices. The characters in this book are realistic and fully developed, I could envision them in my mind. I felt sorry for their other daughter, Alexis, who seems to become invisible to Emma, the missing sister. I also empathized with Peter, Megan's husband, who, although he wanted to find Emma, believed after two years she was gone and it was time to move on with their lives.

A parent's worst nightmare, your child missing. Something I hope I never have to go through. Finding Emma is a page-turning, gut-wrenching read that will burrow it's way into your heart.

There may be quite a few books about missing children, but this book tugged at my heart strings and made me think twice about missing children and the different outcomes that could occur from this tragedy. Megan is a mom of three children, two live currently under her roof and one has been missing for two long years. The book begins with Emma home, but quickly moves beyond the two years to a time where this family is falling apart at the seams. Each member of the family has been affected by Emma's disappearance.
