Über diesen Titel

Eleven-year-old Lauren O'Neil vanished one sunny afternoon as she walked home from school. Six years later, her parents Rachel and Dan still tirelessly scour their Oregon hometown and beyond, always believing Lauren will be found. Then one day, the call comes.

Lauren has been rescued from a secluded farm mere miles away, and her abductor has confessed. Yet her return is nothing like Rachel imagined. Though the revelations about what Lauren endured are shocking, most heartbreaking of all is to see the bright-eyed, assertive daughter she knew transformed into a wary, polite stranger.

Lauren's first instinct is to flee. For years she's been told her parents forgot her; now she doubts the pieces of her life can ever fit together again. But Rachel refuses to lose her a second time. Little by little they must relearn what it means to be a family, trusting that their bond is strong enough to guide them back to each other.

Intensely moving and absorbing, this is an extraordinary story told with sensitivity and grace, and filled with the depth and breadth of a mother's love.

AND THEN SHE WAS GONE by Rosalind Noonan is a story of a young rescued kidnapped victim, what happens next after being in captivity for 6 years. The then 11 year old girl, now a 17 year old young adult who has endured torture, abused mentally and physically in the hands of an child sex predator. What this novel offers, is not only the harrowing ordeal and trauma of an abused victim, her healing process and her close family's, but also a suspense twist where multiple characters actively took part in shapung the story, looking for the truth. Which is like a race against time mission.
The highlight, for me, in this whole journey is the unconditional maternal love. Proving that motherly instinct and emotion goes beyond any form of love. The kidnapping of a child alone is every parent's worst living nightmare that could ever happen and I swayed with that intense emotion listening to this audiobook. The novel is both heartbreaking and healing, of finding the strength to face/rise above your fears and never losing hope.

I loved the emotions that played my heartstrings listening to this audiobook.
How, in fact, an outstanding and seasoned Narrator/Voice Actor can carry a whole story up to the next level. It's every Author's dream to have their novels be told to by a narrator/voice actor who could portray their beloved characters. Distinctively bringing each of them, their personalities come to life. Instilling the emotions to the listeners with their voice acting skills and talent. And captivate listeners with their storytelling style and their articulate narration.
Having all that, its for us a worthwhile listening experience, pleasure and enjoyment. That is how I would describe the narration and voice acting in this audiobook. Erin Bennett's performance throughout the whole audiobook is beyond satisfaction. I actually didn't want it to end yet.
A ....MUST HAVE, MUST LISTEN 🎧📖
