Description
It took precious seconds of 16-year-old Melanie's diverted attention at the Mardi Gras parade for someone to take baby Max from his stroller. Another hour for police to present Max's mom, Jane, with all the kidnapper left behind...one small shoe.
Six months later, the family is in a turmoil they cannot seem to escape. Max is out there somewhere - Jane is certain and she won't stop until she finds him - while Melanie takes a horrific step to make amends for those few seconds of attention lapse. Kyle doesn't know who to comfort first and, even if he could determine whether his wife or daughter needs him most, he can't put aside his own anguish over his missing infant son to chart a corrective course of action.
With their marriage on the rocks and a teenager taking matters into her own hands, can this family survive MISSING MAX?

Review
This book was such an exciting ride! While we also are along for the ride in the search for this little boy, we also get to see 'behind the scenes' into how something like this pulls and tears at the family involved. This book is an emotional rollercoaster from beginning to surprising end and will have you on the edge of your seat. Definitely pick this one up for some great summer reading!
