This is a very absorbing read and I only wish it could be updated to include more recent cases. Nash's writing style is engaging as he covers hundreds of disappearances of all types. Photographs and sketches occasionally illustrate the stories. Nash organizes cases by cause of disappearance: chapters are given titles such as "Escape to Love," "Murder Unseen," and, most intriguingly, "No Reason at All." It should be noted that many of the cases he writes about have been solved; the missing person was located months, years and sometimes decades after vanishing. This, it seems, would lend hope to the families of people who have been gone for extensive time periods. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
