Since the day her baby sister was taken, Holly’s mind hasn’t been the same. PTSD, panic attacks, nightmares and blocked memories have plagued her ever since. And now they’ve returned.

Hard-edged Detective Vince O’Malley’s most recent case penetrated even his protective shell. Ordered to take time off to recover, he can’t let go, and on his own, follows the clues to Holly’s small upstate NY town.

His presence stirs ghosts from the past, shadows of a little girl lost, the suspicions of some tight-lipped locals with secrets to hide, and more than that inside Holly’s fragile mind and untouched heart.

What people are saying…

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This book gives the reader so much in suspence, spine tingling, sitting on the edge of your seat emotions that you WILL NOT be able to put this down until the very end. I confess that I started this early last evening and was up until 3 a.m. finishing it. I was not going to go to bed until I did finish it either.~ Reviewer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I loved this book! It was very suspenseful and intriguing! The author held your attention for the whole book! I would highly recommend reading this book!~ Reviewer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Wow !!! 'Gingerbread Man' by Maggie Shayne is a truly magnificent thriller. It is an emotional roller coaster and a whirlpool that drags you in the story from page 1. Whilst reading it you feel sadness, pain, anger, fear and excitement, ( I felt like crying at some points) and each emotion is immediately replaced by another as you turn the pages.~ Reviewer

Look Inside Ch. 1

“Are my children still alive?”

Sara Prague asked the question in a quiet, steady voice that he heard very clearly despite the noise around her. Cops coming and going, keyboards clicking, phones ringing. She looked haggard. Hard. She hadn’t always, Vince figured. The worry lines bracketing her eyes, her mouth, the dry skin, the chapped lips, the sense that she really didn’t give a damn what she looked like— those things had been strangers to her that first day. The day her kids hadn’t come home from school. It looked as if they planned to stay awhile.

This shouldn’t have happened to Sara Prague, a PTA mom whose world revolved around her kids. It shouldn’t have happened to her husband. Mike, full-time plumber and part-time Little League coach. It should’t happen to anyone.

Vince walked around his desk and eased Sara Prague into a cracked vinyl chair, ignoring the chaos around them. He poured her some stale coffee from the pot on the nearby stand, just as he had every day for the past three weeks. She came in here like clockwork— something the Center for Missing and Exploited Children had probably told her to do. He thought she would keep doing it, too. For years, if necessary.

It wouldn’t be necessary though.

She took the foam cup and sipped automatically. It was all part of their daily ritual. “You haven’t answered my question, Detective. Are Bobby and Kara still alive?”
