Crawl from the Basement
(2023)(The second book in the Monica is Missing series)
A novel by Daniel Norrish
An edge-of-your-seat kidnap thriller about shattered hope, silence, and fierce justice for a missing child.
Monica is gone. She was at her speech pathology session just moments ago, and now she is missing. The doors are smashed, a man has been stabbed, and four-year-old Monica is missing.
This epic crime drama follows Monica's father, Roland, and Monica's mother, Abbie, as they plunge into despair with Monica's disappearance. Each chapter is a window into the mind of a mother and father facing an unimaginable horror: someone has their child.
Abbie cannot forgive herself for being late to pick Monica up from a therapy session as she finds evidence that Monica was still sitting, waiting for mum only moments before. Read Abbie's inner thoughts about Ben Rigton, whether she really did have an affair, and if she had any idea that someone was watching her daughter.
Did Roland meet the man who took his daughter while the police were still searching in the wrong direction? And how does he summon the courage and willpower to chase countless killers into the underworld?
Crawl from the Basement is set to be released on the 3rd of December, International Day of People with a Disability. All of Daniel Norrish's future releases will include realistic characters with disabilities. Eighteen percent of Australians have a disability diagnosis; wouldn't it be cool if this number was more closely represented in Aussie fiction?
Genre: Mystery
