The Lost Ones Kindle Edition

Single, childless and reduced to writing celebrity profiles, investigative journalist Suzannah Quinn’s life is not going to plan… During an interview with top publisher Roland Winterbourne, things seem to change: she meets Jamie Davis. It’s love at first sight and within hours she has agreed to marry him. But Jamie insists on inviting no friends or family to the wedding and Suzannah's millionaire father quickly suspects him of being a fortune hunter. At first the couple are blissfully happy. Suzannah’s only worry is Jamie’s mysterious past, which he refuses to talk about. However, when Suzannah suddenly inherits a flat off Portobello Road, everything changes. The move quickly triggers a change in their relationship and it’s not long before the arguments start. Then one morning, after a particularly bad row, Jamie goes to work and doesn’t return. When she finds a scrap of paper in his jacket pocket with a name and address in North Devon, she is eager to investigate. What she discovers when she goes there brings her world crashing down...
