Review
'Down at the core, beneath its several layers, THE MAN WHO DISAPPEARED is a well-crafted suspense story...Morrall digs beneath the surface to mine psychological nuggets, some of them gold.' (Rachel Hore, Independent on Sunday )

'A wise, intelligent and surprising novel, in which - as in life - nothing is simple' (Kate Saunders, The Times )

'A highly achieved, engrossing read... Superbly imagined, it reads like documentary truth.' (Tom Adair, Scotsman )

'Compelling...In clear, concise prose, Morrall movingly depicts Kate's strength in the face of adversity, and Felix's excoriating regret at the damage done.' (Marie Claire )

'An absorbing novel about deception and self-discovery' (Grazia )

'An inspiring story about a woman who finds inner strength as her world crumbles' (TV Times )

'an engaging, unpretentious read' (Scottish Sunday Herald )
