A wealthy woman suspects something is off about the luxurious complex she lives in . . . and she is right, in this riveting domestic-suspense novel from international bestselling author Alexandra Burt. Donna Pryor lives in the lap of luxury. She spends her days in a beautifully appointed condo. Her every whim is catered to by a dedicated staff, and she does not want for anything. Except for news of her adult daughter. Or an ex-husband who takes her calls. Donna knows something is wrong, but she can't quite put her finger on it. As her life of privilege starts to feel more and more like a prison, the facade she has depended on begins to crumble. Somewhere in the ruins is the truth, and the closer Donna Pryor gets to it, the more likely it is to destroy her.

Like Girl on the Train and Gone Girl, Remember Mia is a riveting psychological suspense, exploring what happens when a young mother’s worst nightmare becomes devastatingly real… First I remember the darkness. Then I remember the blood. I don’t know where my daughter is. Estelle Paradise wakes up in a hospital after being found near dead at the bottom of a ravine with a fragmented memory and a vague sense of loss. Then a terrifying reality sets in: her daughter is missing. Days earlier, Estelle discovered her baby’s crib empty in their Brooklyn apartment. There was no sign of a break-in, but all traces of seven-month-old Mia had disappeared. Her diapers, her clothes, her bottles—all gone. Frustrated and unable to explain her daughter’s disappearance, Estelle begins a desperate search. But when the lack of evidence casts doubt on her story, Estelle becomes the number one suspect in the eyes of the police and the media. As hope of reuniting with Mia becomes all she has left, Estelle will do anything to find answers: What has she done to her baby? And what has someone else done to her?

Estelle Paradise si risveglia in un letto d’ospedale: la sua macchina è stata ritrovata distrutta in fondo a un burrone, lei è ferita e i suoi ricordi sono confusi e frammentari. Poi una terribile verità si fa strada: sua figlia Mia, di soli 7 mesi, è scomparsa. Qualche giorno prima, qualcuno ha portato via la bambina dalla sua stanza. In preda al panico e incapace di ricordare cosa sia successo, Estelle si lancia in un’estenuante ricerca della verità, ma le prove smentiscono la sua versione dei fatti e la donna diventa la principale sospettata agli occhi della polizia e dei media. Estelle sa bene che la chiave per capire cosa è successo quella notte è nascosta nella sua mente: può davvero aver fatto del male alla sua bambina?
