Dear Child

 Fiction by Romy Haussmann 



At the beginning of this book, there is a girl injured in a hit and run accident and brought to the hospital with her young daughter. The child says her mother is called Lena; and there is a missing woman by that name the police have been seeking for years. But is this the same person? And who is the child?

This story, set in Germany and originally written on German, is billed on the back cover as "Room meets Gone Girl." That's a pretty accurate description, and it's quite as good a thriller as those two books.
