Five top thrillers with parents searching for missing children

Katie Garner was born in New York and grew up in New Jersey. She has a degree in Art History from Ramapo College and is certified to teach high school Art. She hoards paperbacks, coffee mugs, and dog toys and can be seen holding at least one of those things most of the time.

Garner lives in a New Jersey river town with her husband, little boy, and shih-poo where she writes books about women and their dark, secret selves. The Night It Ended is her debut novel and The Family Inside is her newest novel.

At CrimeReads Garner tagged five books that turn "that ‘ordinary’ fear—losing your child—into something extraordinary." One title on the list:
Rick Mofina’s SOMEONE SAW SOMETHING

Mofina shines telling the story of Corina, a journalist whose son disappears in the middle of Central Park. Add that to a plot bubbling with conspiracy theorists, hate mail, and an abundance of red-herrings, and this one is worth checking out if you’re interested in a realistic and twisty page-turner.
